ARTIST BIO

I first picked up a paint brush in 2017...on 20 January according to my photos on my phone.

Since then, I've produced a painting on average every two weeks. Almost all are portraits, usually in bright, bold colours with a narrow palette (Blues, or Red/Yellow or Black and White).  Mostly they're of famous musicians, with my largest works of John Lennon (182cm x 122cm) decorating my lounge room.   I aim for a very realistic image but in unrealistic, pop-art inspired colours...like a red gorilla, or P!nk in pink.  

My painting continues with a mentality of 'who-to-paint-next' and will they look better blue, red or black?
