Artist Statement

Since my childhood spent in the Caribbean island of Antigua, I have been captivated by light and colour. As a passionate painter, I am constantly searching for ways to describe ephemeral moments and capture the extraordinary beauty of ordinary moments. From people to places, my work is an ongoing exploration of life itself, and what it means to stop and notice in a world that is constantly pushing for blind forward motion.  

I open my works up to everyone. Spaces and bodies become vessels for the viewer. An oasis or ‘elsewhere’ beyond the world’s push for progress where one can rest a while. More than anything else, they become a reflection upon the nature of being. On being human, on being alive in a world that never stands still.

Making every mark count, I am constantly trying to say more with less, letting brushstrokes speak for themselves no matter how quiet their voice. Pushing and pulling between application and erasure like the tide. 

Currently studying in Bath, I am open to selling originals and prints of my paintings. I am also available for commissions or custom works. Please contact me below to enquire further.
