Born, studied and worked as illustrator and graphic designer in London. Now full-time artist. From a traditional background, subjects such as landscape and portraits, has develop his art into modern Contemporary Abstract that has evolved into a more fluid representation of the artist own style and feel. All the artworks are unique, handmade and not digitally or mass produced.

Buildings and city structures, tall towers of modern architectural buildings and tall sky scrapers with glass structures are becoming more and more abstract and contemporary in design with the use of new and innovative materials and buildings techniques. The old against the new buildings- textures and differing levels colours and tones is what I find most interesting and how these play against each other to produce an interesting and amazing skyline view of mega city proportions.

For my Abstract City paintings, i don’t try to copy any particular city skyline but only use as reference to colour tones and values which changes according to artistic atheistic and juxtaposition of colours.
Blocks of colours and simple textures are what abstract interpretation is what I strive for. I don’t want to confuse the eye with details which will take away from the initial feeling and composition. Detail is suggested as is place and familiarity as to keep the paintings contemporary and visually stimulating longer to the viewer.

You may find my work on other well established gallery websites, but the prices can be upto 35% dearer as they charge commission.
