Studied at Brighton University between 1995 and 1998, before moving on to an M.A at Central St Martins College. Nostalgic elements have always been at the heart of his work, incorporating innocent but sometimes often real and gritty snapshots of life, everything from photo albums to homages of his heroes.
Recently the style has been divided into two equal parts. Painted pieces and also modern graphic pen and ink drawings, both incorporating flourishes of collage. Composition is the most important aspect of the work and it’s how each project is normally approached.
Influences range from Peter Blake, Euan Uglow, Robert Rauschenberg, American photographers such as Lee Friedlander, Saul Leiter and also graphic artists such as Saul Bass and the Blue Note sleeves.
Recent commissions include The Sunday Times Magazine and GQ Magazine (UK, Australia & France).
