Most of my work has social commentary within it. Humans can be fascinating, people watching with or without sketchbook.
1 - 5 Children don't play out like they used to. First 4 were for a mixed show at Tanner & Lawson, Columbia Road, London. Blind Man's Bluff was selected for Art Alive at The Assembly House Norwich 2013
6 - Falling man - contemporary rework of the Icarus myth with a nod to the Twin Towers falling man photograph myth. This was selected for Flying colours Fabulous Forms at the Assembly House Norwich 2011 and for the Cork Street Open London in 2011
7. The River, shortlisted for the Sir John Hurt Art Prize 2019 - And what about the future? Here mankind is represented by the sullen twins, not taking climate warnings seriously, living life as if the planet is infinite, while expecting technology to save them from their self inflicted fate.
8. Waste Land, our future Adam and Eve struggle to grow food on planet earth where soil degradation has led to the dying of vital micro-organisms collapsing the soil's fertility.
9.The Intermediaries, what if, in this future Earth we again talk to the Old Gods; using child spell casters and ravens to to take our rain spells to the Gods.
10.Dark Glasses. Do I need words ? I think you will all get it.. if you don't email me
