My work develops from my imagination and by drawing on inspiration from the masters and various pop imagery.
I set out to create paintings that simplify the scene, only including what I require to tell the story in honest and simple forms. 
The end result creates a sense of playfulness while provoking feelings of familiarity and curiosity. 
My process is always developing as I experiment and implement new methods. But, my end result always remains true to my vision and my practice as a painter.
