Artists Bio:
Landscape, Seascape and Cloudscape painter.
I trained in Fine Art Drawing, Painting and Sculpture in Wales before returning home to finish my BA (Hons) degree in Derby. I now live and work in the Derbyshire Dales on the edge of the Peak District.
Big, moody, atmospheric, skies are common in my paintings.
Working in oils, I enjoy the techniques of impressionism and tonalism. I love being out in nature and aim to convey a particular mood or atmosphere in each painting. I regularly paint plein air; all of my paintings start outside in nature.
In the studio, I use my outdoor sketches as a starting point. For me, this is where the magic begins.
Through blended layers of translucent paint, bolder brushwork and thick, impasto knifework expressively worked into the foreground, I create poetic artwork that would make a beautiful addition to any interior.
All the prints here on Arti are of high quality and have been specially selected for you. They are individually, and professionally scanned directly from my original paintings.
