​

I like to explore various 2D and 3D mediums in my artwork. Using  various traditional 2D mediums such as pencil, charcoal or ink, and watercolour on paper, I create illustrations of scenes from scenes from stories, history, and landscapes; and also draw portraits. These drawings and paintings depict the world that can be explored through imagination and dreams. I want my illustrations to enrich the stories they depict and inspire the imagination of the reader, to give them an immersive experience into the world contained within a story. My 3D artworks are mainly installations that I use to provoke the viewer into examine their own beliefs and assumptions.
