About Me


I'm a British/Portuguese Painter, living in Portugal.
My paintings are on either canvas or acrylic paper. I use collage and other materials as well as acrylics in my paintings, which are all abstracts.
I am sometimes asked how I create my works. I don't over plan the beginning. I usually just decide on a base colour to cover all or part of the canvas and I then make things happen, by scoring into the wet paint with a painting knife, or scratching it with the end of a paintbrush, I throw wet paint onto the canvas and generally mix things up to see what happens. it's a bit like a jazz musician improvising instead of playing a set tune. I sometimes add collage, other mediums like oil pastels and I frequently take photos to alter digitally to help choose a direction to go in.
I am also available to do commissions for paintings. I consult with the client, view the space for the painting, we come to a agreement on the price (40% is paid upfront and 60% on completion and delivery of the artwork) and I keep the client updated throughout the whole process.
Contact me if you need more info or you want to buy one of my canvases.
Thank you so much for visiting my site!
