I am a portrait, landscape and abstract artist based in the village of Kilmacolm, near Glasgow in the West of Scotland.
My work is intuitive and physical, with textured layers that create a personal communication. I am fascinated with how the face reflects and exudes colour, varies in tone and texture and is a synthesis of colours, tones, lines, marks, layers, folds and abstract shapes. From a distance my paintings appear representational but close up the viewer can explore the application of texture and paint that build the painting.
The portraits include Katie Archibald, World Champion and Olympic Champion; Paisley Para gold medallist Olympian Kenny Cairns from Paisley; St. Mirren football legend Tony Fitzpatrick.
