I paint and draw people as if they are transparent, weaving and darting around, inside out. My works capture particular states of mind, how it feels, rather than how it looks.

            Born in London in 1991, I attended Sussex Coast College Art Foundation, subsequently the BA Fine Art at Birmingham City University. My degree show, 18 figures across a 26ft painting, was awarded the Pip Seymour painting prize. During the degree I received an Erasmus grant to study in Romania, where I undertook rigorous tutelage in life drawing and painting. In 2014 I began the scholarship ‘Drawing Year’ at the Royal Drawing School. Whilst there I focused on anatomical and observational drawing, which gave me the confidence to draw with greater freedom and imagination.

                I am a freelance art and life drawing tutor in London and online.
