About my artwork: "Influenced by thoughts of discord and distortion, my work attempts to strike an awkward harmony within heavily painted surfaces. Using elements of action painting and lineal draftsmanship, each composition is saturated, overflowing with paint and form. Built up with multiple layers of oil paint thinned to a watercolour consistency, the unpredictability of dripped paint adds a gestural quality without the considered movement of a brush. Seemingly random runs of colour are interwoven with regimented mechanical lines and shapes. Other areas are withdrawn from the foreground and subdued by veil like washes of white paint, while the dominating shapes are raised off the surface with texture gels further channeling the flow of the dripped paint".

Artists I like: Tobias Lehner, Anselm Reyle and a host of fellow contemporary German painters. Danny Rolph, Gordon Cheung, Chris Ofili, Nigel Cooke

What exhibitions are good at the moment?: Hew Locke - How do you want me. Hales Gallery / Peter Doig - Tate Britain
