This overhaul of my site has been a great opportunity to look back at a lot of my projects I haven’t thought about for a while. This mural painted for Rediscover Armadale was a more pivotal shift in my direction than I realised at the time. I made a huge break from the portrait-based paintings that had been the basis of my first decade of large-scale work and opened up an entire new way of working, thinking and exploring a direction more process led. In short, I jumped into some unknown territory without a roadmap and just let one discovery lead to the next.

Sometimes you have to pause, take a moment to reflect and look back over everything you’ve achieved in your life and ask yourself - am I telling my story correctly? I’ve spent the best part of the last 2-decades aspiring to be a full time artist, based on my idea of what that looks like and how you’re supposed to project that out into the world. I last updated the look and feel of this website 9-years ago based on that vision, and in the process omitted a lot of what I now realise are the most crucial parts of my story.
