Original Artwork
Pastel Works
One of my most favourite art mediums. I hope you enjoy viewing my gallery of pastel paintings.
Oil Painting Works
A medium of which I find intriguing, and I enjoy the difference in technique to that of working with Pastel.
Graphite & Charcoal Drawings
The first art medium I ever used, and from where I discovered my love of creating art.
Mixed Media
For these works, my usual combination tends to be Watercolours and Fineliners intertwined. A combination I accidentally discovered through experimentation, and of which I find vibrant and fun, and often tells a story of its own!

Since creating timelapse videos for my artwork, I have also found it a great way to pair my own music compositions with my art.
Featured in these videos are all my own musical pieces that I create specifically for each individual art piece.

About Me
Hello!I am a self-taught Artist, Musician, and Photographer from South Yorkshire, England.I have been creating art for most of my life.My family painted various pictures around the home. There was one particular painting I remember: a stream flowing under a quaint stone bridge. I remember the magic I felt looking at that painting, and wanting to try and recapture that in my own paintings.By sixteen, I began drawing portraiture. I eventually discovered the works of the artist called Vicente Romero Redondo, of whom I was, and still am, amazed at the level of detail and colour that can be achieved with the soft pastel medium. I was immediately inspired to explore painting with soft pastels.I eventually began to explore using Oil Paint, again inspired by the works of Vicente Romero Redondo, and Vladimir Volegov, of whom I also admire the works of.I do not have any formal tuition in art, but my passion and dedication to creating art has helped to further my craft over the years, which I hope to continually develop over many more years to come.Although I am also self-taught in music - the instruments of guitar, piano, and singing - I studied the subject formally to achieve a BA (Hons) in Music Performance and Production, at a level of 2:2.Art and Music have always been my greatest passions in life, and I look forward to creating many more works in the future.If you are interested in purchasing one of my artworks, or would like to commission your very own original painting, please feel free to contact me to ask any questions you may have.If you are reading this, I thank you for your time!
