Distinctive iconic butterflies and bold colour schemes are often featured in my highly recognisable, graphic, pop art style work.

A modern, graphic approach is employed yet used to focus on the timeless and eternal.
My work celebrates and encourages going beyond the modern world of consumerism, to escape, transcend, and to dream.

Perhaps the butterfly is me, perhaps the butterfly is you, perhaps the butterfly is everyone. Perhaps it's just a butterfly.

I began experimenting with graphics around the age of twelve. I have a BSc (Hons) degree in
Media Technology and a background of creating stretching back over twenty years.

In 2010 I am also exhibiting at Eyestorm (London), Affordable Art Fair (with Art*) (London), Opus Underground (Newcastle),
Fisherton Mill (Salisbury) and Goblets Gallery (Southampton). I have previously shown at WWT (Slimbridge),
The Atkinson Gallery (Southport), Gosport Gallery, Worthing Museum, Chameleon Gallery (Brighton) and was one of ten finalists at Brighton Artist 2005.

album posters - but this work is not a tool for publicity, it only advertises itself' - Eyestorm
