Inspiration
My artworks explore the wonders of life in our ocean.
​
Intricate ink drawings and paintings of ocean animals celebrate the biodiversity and interconnectedness of our blue planet.
​
At the same time as celebrating them, I hope my work can help to draw attention to the threats our oceans are facing in an era of human-driven environmental crisis.
A keen scuba diver, I draw upon my underwater experiences and a fascination with our ocean environment.
How?
I imagine the animals in my paintings as ‘Ecological Godzillas’.
They bear ocean worlds on their backs; thriving coral reefs and vibrant habitats have established on their bodies.
Marine life find sanctuary in these ecosystems, safe from humanity's impact on the ocean.
​
I work in ink with fine-tipped pens or very fine paintbrushes. My largest projects take 6-8 months to complete and my smaller pieces take a couple of weeks.
​
Each artwork offers something new to discover each time you look!

Why?
With each artwork, I am attempting to create a symbol that illustrates the wonders, biodiversity and interconnectedness of our ocean, but also reflects the declining state of our oceans.
​
Creating these drawings and paintings is my effort to tell the story of the challenges and opportunities facing our blue planet and help protect the ocean that we all love.
​
I hope that you enjoy exploring my artwork and that you discover something new!
