Profile Information

If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?: Digital, Drawing, Painting, Photography, Sculpture

I am...: currently living in South Devon. I was born in Oxford in 1980, and was brought up in Swindon. Since my early years, I was inspired by my grandfather who was an incredible artist, and a cartoonist for the 'Mirror' newspaper in the 1970's.

In 1996 I studied Art and Art History in the Swindon college of Art and Design, and obtained a A level in Art and Design foundation, and have carried on ever since. I have done many commissions for people including corporate signs and logo designs, a mural for a local nursery school, illustrations for a published poetry magazine and numerous paintings for private clients.

I paint under the business name of 'Pink Fish' and have a few exhibitions currently running around South Devon. I find living on the coast, amazing and inspirational - a dream come true! I enjoy all aspects of art, and in particular I enjoy using acrylic paint, pastel and charcoal mediums.

About my artwork: My artwork is inspired by living on the coast and is 'seaside' themed. Most of my work is done using acrylic paint onto a framed canvas. I do enjoy painting other types of subject too, alot of it being fantasy themed.

Interests: Walking along the beach, rock-pooling, travel and my two wonderful children!

What exhibitions are good at the moment?: The 'Space Invaders' exhibition is currently running throughout Torbay. There is art trail guide which has been produced to find your way around. My 'Pink Fish' exhibition is held at Middle Street in Brixham and Union Square in Torquay. I also have an exhibition in the Old Market Cafe in Brixham, directly opposite the Golden Hind.
