Biography

Born in 1971 and educated in South Devon I graduated from Plymouth College of Art & Design in 1994 with an HND in Graphic Design.

By chance I was offered a job by an up and coming New Media Company in Bath and it was there that I developed my Graphic Art and Animation skills alongside those traditionally associated with Graphic Design. I was presented with the opportunity to combine a life long love of fine art with the technical innovations that were occurring in Digital Imaging at the time.

I began to combine traditional painting and printmaking with digital imaging skills into a style that can only have evolved through this unexpected journey.

My prints are output onto high quality fine art paper or canvas as limited editions before the digital files are destroyed. This preserves the value and exclusivity of the work in years to come.
