I Sea Love creation

First video/video editing! Creating an installation piece on the back of a house. Never used any video editing software before, self-taught myself and I think the video ain't too bad!

Hippies, Biggie and Mustard Cafe

Piece on the wall (masking tape underneath!) was nice to work with the environment again.



Have been asked to display some work in Mustard Cafe (http://www.mustardnorwich.com/) and would love a recommendation what piece to put in. Here is a portfolio and photos

Mesh Netted

The net shares its qualities with my work ethic - composition by selected segmentation.

Squid Slide projector

After experimenting with the slide projector, I wanted to project an image onto a surface I could paint/draw/etc. around. As I found out, however high the image definition, the image still came out as spots very close up. So I decided to create an image of a colossal squid with just red and black dots (the main colours)


I also experimented with how angles distort the image.




Vicky Hardman also took a nice photo of the bulb in the projector after it has been on for a while.

sticker experimentation

idea of an almost brand-like repetition that artists tend to use, from Warhol to Banksy. created into a sticker, the image is of the recent floods in Africa, with water being thrown out of the house replaced with colour. make up your own mind what its meaning is!

Recent drawings

Few drawings im working on. BBC4 documentary series 'Why Beauty Matters' has persuaded me to work in a more traditional stlye, but still incorparating more contemporary themes and experimentation within them and the workings.

Frame work

got an idea from French artist Žilda http://palimpseste-rennes.blogspot.com/ about putting frames in urban spaces, how art can be in a museum rotting away for enternity, whereas art on the street is short lived, almost like a installation piece, before it is gone over, removed or wears away.

Instead of creating new art though, I am highlighting the my love for composistion, particuarly the ignored, which when focused upon can be more visually satisfying than another. Pretentious I know, but it is what it is.
