About
I am an multimedia artist, art tutor and Life Model based in Cardiff, I received my Ba Hons in Fine Art from the Cardiff School of Art and Design in 2001, and then completed Professional Graduate Certificate in Education in Further Education in Art and Design at the University of Wales in Newport in 2006.
I have been tutoring adults of all ages and abilities since 2016 to impart my knowledge and techniques to empower new artists to bring their own visions to life.
I began my career in 2000 creating only personal paintings, which I continue to do so in my private studio in Llanishen, Cardiff.
From 2012 to 2017 my art merged Art with Science together to explore intriguing elements in the field of neuroscience, magnetic monopoles, gravitational waves, dark matter, and cosmology. I have been drawn to scientific ideas all my life from some of the most technically complex, mathematically intricate and truly mind-boggling revelations from the towers and laboratories of academia, most of which I do not truly understand! Perhaps I seek to merge art and science to calm the turbulations of the ultimate puzzle – what does it mean to exist – and to ponder and discover science’s ultimate promise: What is it all about anyway? I was commissions by universities and their researchers to create artistic responses with regards to their awesome cutting-edge scientific explorations: Explore the archive here- The Art and Science Archive
