I have been painting and drawing for as far back as I can remember and
consider myself to be a self taught artist. I studied illustration in Edinburgh
before heading to London where I began freelance career as an artist
and illustrator. At that time my client base were mainly restaurants, pubs chains
and stadiums where I painted murals, provided bespoke canvases for
refurbishments and hand drawn advertising on chalkboards. My illustration
styles expanded over time from traditional mediums to digital formats using
Abobe software and Corel Painter. In 2012 I moved back to Edinburgh and
continued in that vein for a while.

Although I enjoyed my work which became predominantly digital, I realised I
missed the messiness and freeness of working with paint. In January 2018 I
decided to start creating my own art and see where that took me. I have
literally not stopped painting since.
