I Layer Up Colors Without Much Planning To Create These Vibrant Portraits Of Animals And People
I’m a UK based artist specialising in vibrant portraits of animals and people. I work in a very instinctual way, not liking to plan too much what happens. I enjoy layering up colours in response to whatever strokes I have previously made on the canvas and seeing where it takes me.
My art is personal to me and I see it as a way of making sense of the chaos around me, allowing me to zone out of life and focus on the work in front of me. I really hope you enjoy my work.

Beaming with color! WoWzA... That is a rare talent which goes outside the norm, yet conveys such beauty.
Wow, these paintings are beautiful. I especially love the lion, the chimp,the penguins and the two swans. But I find them all amazing in there own way.
I like your use of colour but please acknowledge the photographers work you based these on. I recognized Hopeful as a be lion photo by Bozai

Wow, these are so elemental, especially the leopard and the chimp. I get the feeling that you paint rather as I make music. Find a medium, play around with it and improvise as the spirit [s] move you. I sometimes listen back whilst editing and hear things I never knew I'd played, rather like the 4th angel when you sing harmony. The orang gutan is brilliant and very lifelike. My fond regards to a brilliant artist.
