I am a Sheffield based artist, whose practice, heavily based around figurative painting, could be broadly described as expressionist. My paintings display an extremely thick rich impasto style, which is sometimes so heavy that paint seems to have been sculpted rather than brushed onto canvas or board. I allow myself to become involved with the paint. I feel more connected to the piece as paint gets on my hands, arms, and skin.
Projects are typically taken from familiar subjects, portraits of models, or urban scenes from around UK cities such as London and Sheffield where I have been based throughout his career. Each work is initiated by the surroundings, and affected by location and subject. There is a noticeable difference between pieces created in and around London, and the ones created in Sheffield.
The location and subject directly affect my attitude and therefore the work. The more familiar I am with a subject the faster I work, the less familiar I am with the subject the more likely it is that I will scrape, and re-scrape the canvas increasing the time taken to finish a piece
