I have been working as a freelance artist/illustrator, based in London, since graduating from Central St Martin's in 2006, having achieved an MA with distinction in Communication and Design.
Pattern, texture and colour inspire my artwork and I like to experiment in bringing different mediums together. My work often explores the physical and emotional consequences of human relationships, using a mix of photography, collage, found objects and digital media.
