Artist Statement 
Growing up, animals have always played a big role in my life; whether that was helping out on farms during lambing season, visiting elephant sanctuaries in Asia or getting lost in David Attenborough documentaries for hours. I feel so lucky to have had so many first hand experiences with magnificent and striking animals. And so with the birth of my son in early 2022, I’ve become a lot more aware of the world around us and in particular the need for conservation of wildlife. 

​My  work strives to draw attention to and remind us of the beauty of all animals and the active role we all play in helping to conserve their lives. I like to use colour and texture to connect the subject and background, and use abstract and representational techniques to demonstrate the interconnectedness of the world around us and the ethereal significance these animals have on our lives.
