I have been creating art for as long as I can remember, it's something i've always been drawn to (excuse the pun!) Since around 2017 i've been creating my current style, I call it Abstract Psychedelic, this style is uniquely my own and features intricate patterns, bold colours and attempts to capture beauty in different ways.
​
Attention to detail is one of my fortays. I work best when I am in a flow state honing on in on intricate patterns and incorporating influences from many different artists and things. I love to draw, paint and generally be creative. Getting into a flow state when working is one of my favourite places to be, usually accompanied by a podcast or music. I appreciate that I can learn other things whilst making Art, which is beneficial. Being an Artist makes me observant and I believe I can see and find beauty in things that others would overlook.
​
Some of my influences include nature, architecture, the psychedelic experience and patterns I observe in the everyday world. I used to want to be a car designer and spent many hours drawing cars when I was younger, lots of details emerge in my paintings and drawings that are influcened by design.

One of my favourite things to do is sketch and doodle in different places, usually cafes or bars. I create doodles that are inspired by certain patterns or motifs I notice in the environments around me. This has been the inspiration for many of my drawings.
I have a strong interest in sustainability that i've nurtured over several years, i’m always keen to understand more about the topic, thriving off solutions. As with many, i’ve found the problem of environmental protection overwhelming, especially with the lack of action by many Governments. At this point in my journey I seek to find solutions, rather than focusing on all the worst problems. As a creative person I am far more inspired by ideas and ways out of a problem, rather than fixating on issues, which I find depresses me.
Through my art practise i’ve tried various ways to make my practise more sustainable. Whilst I use acrylic paints, which contain harmful chemicals, I endeavour to dispose of them safely. This involves collecting waste paint water and allowing the water to evaporate. I also have a large collection of art materials that i’ve amassed over the years from others. I often buy second hand frames from charity shops, which are often better quality and have more character than modern frames.
As I mentioned i’m far from perfect and find it as hard to control myself in an art shop as any other artist. I think being open about your strengths and flaws is an excellent way to grow and develop. I love to learn more about sustainability and am always open to try new approaches, feel free to reach out and start a discussion if you have any tips you think I could use.
