Details
They're semi-photorealist landscapes drawn in charcoal and pencil. I’m also a painter - but at the moment my current practice is mostly drawing. The drawings are ‘involved’ and detailed.
What does being an artist mean to me : this is a difficult one to answer as it's just what I do. I am probably dissatisfied if I'm not thinking about, or making pictures regularly.
I'm a landscape artist. My practice is quite traditional and studio based.
My practice starts with a lot of walking and exploring the countryside. I’ve always got my camera as I’m quite a keen photographer. I’ll use photos and sketches to create my final images. A lot of work is done before I even set pencil to paper.
I’ve done a little teaching but mostly my practice is studio based drawing/painting and taking part in exhibitions.
