Artist Biography

My artwork is a heartfelt expression of my deep love for nature and hope that people admire nature’s beauty, respect it, and take care of it, during these challenging times for the environment.

Growing up in North Wales, surrounded by wildlife and natural landscapes, I found tranquillity and inspiration in these surroundings. This close connection to nature has profoundly influenced my artistic practice and belief that everyone should look after the natural world. I have travelled across all seven continents and witnessed first hand how change is impacting every corner of the globe. These experiences have shaped my creative journey, and my paintings are based on fond memories of my travels.

Through my work, I aim to evoke emotional feelings of love for nature and a strong desire to protect it. I work with high-quality oil paints, using a combination of brushwork and palette knife techniques, influenced by the Impressionists, my approach is to communicate my emotions and nature’s vital significance and the importance of our relationship with it. I seek to engage viewers in reflecting on their own relationship with the environment and communicate a message to love nature, respect it, and take care of it for generations to come.
