ABOUT

I am a mixed medium artist from North East England whose journey is rooted in a working-class background. My artistic style ranges from surrealism to hyperrealism, weaving dark, thought-provoking narratives, never offering easy answers; but rather pushes the boundaries of the viewers perception. Each piece is a catalyst for introspection, sparking a dialogue between the viewer and society, sometimes without offering a clear resolution.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Most of my art work is created using 3D software, then brush painted with Adobe Photoshop

and finalised with After Effects. It can be a painstaking process with some of the larger pieces

taking up to a year to complete. I don't use any Ai art processing. I appreciate there is a place for

Ai, but I generally find it soulless and uninspiring.
