Artist biography

I have drawn the world around me for as long as I can remember. This love for working from life is foundational to my practice, alongside a respect for process, craft, and deep research.

A rigorous engagement with the paintings and drawings of the European Masters was the focus of my formal education. Other influences include my training in anatomy and in classical music, a lifelong exposure to traditional Chinese art, and an appreciation for stories told in any medium.

I hope to invite viewers to share a moment of quiet intensity with my work, and reap the same rewards as I do when looking at the world.
