Born in a hole in Liverpool in 1967, and raised at a time when music moved at breakneck pace between glam, disco and punk, Star Wars was rocking my world at the cinema and the streets heaved with disaffected youth, powercuts, strikes and riots. I was sketching something dark and unspeakable one day, when my art teacher handed a book of Heironymous Bosh paintings, whereupon I realised my dark intent. |
| About the Artist | |
Utilising deep symbolism, diabolical grotesques alongside a fairie tale mythology, elegantly wasted feys with a sense of mortality, in a sometimes surreal and beautiful urban decayed setting, my work is representive of my own personal history and folly. Like a midnight fever, my art combines mystic madness, magical creatures and dark fantastique, and seeks to find beauty in a dark place. |
