I am a 38 year old artist living in France who loves trying to push art to its limit. I have been painting since I was a younger lad in England, now I am just older and still experimenting with art. I believe that the only limitation with art lies within us. I was born in December 1970 and lived along the west coast of England. I served in the armed forces and had numerous jobs throughout the UK.
June 6th 2002 I left the UK to come and start a life here and France and I have been here ever since. During my time here I have had to dig deep and be very determined to succeed, life here can be tough. I cycled over 700km for a job interview to become a mountain bike guide in the Alps just to make sure I got the job. “Which I did” I have taught myself to design websites and use computers to their maximum advantage to earn a living. I also worked on the French markets many people see in the streets around the UK this experience taught me the techniques for selling and doing business. A very valuable experience when it comes to being self employed in France.
Currently I am working producing digital art and graphics for all manner of products and advertising campaigns. I feel that during this time when recession is everywhere a good injection of colour into everyday life makes it seem just that bit better.
