Paint has a life of its own, often forging something greater than I had in mind

I'm an abstract painter based in London. My primary medium is acrylics, and my artistic works are characterized by two distinct styles.

​

In my first style, I blur reality into abstraction, initially drawing inspiration from the interplay of light in dense forest landscapes. This inspiration evolved into a herringbone pixelation of scenes in ethereal colorscapes.

​

In my second style, I employ a systematic brushwork method to craft pleasing compositions, often without a particular subject matter or focus in mind.

​

I am also a practicing architect in the UK, balancing the grand scale of architecture with the intricate details of my art. My influences span a diverse spectrum of creators who, like me, appreciate the process-driven nature of art.

​

For me, art isn't an escape; it's a vibrant lifeline that enriches my architectural creativity. My paintings challenge perceptions, offering glimpses into the boundless possibilities of the abstract.
