Tell me a little about yourself and your art?

Digital photography and illustration; narrative and layers.

 

How did you first get into your chosen art?

Circumstances due to lack of space, I create artwork on my computer.

 

Where do you feel the inspiration to create your art comes from?

Dreams, overheard conversations, films...

 

The last year has been especially challenging for so many of us. How have you managed, both personally and creatively?

Yoga, watching comedy, drawing, walking, changing the decor of the house many times.

 

Has the pandemic or lockdown had any influence on your work, either positively or negatively?

I made short films, during the height of the pandemic, so I've learnt new filming and editing skills, to create my own short films, about the travel I wish I could do.

 

What plans do you have for your art going forward?

More collaboration and bigger scale.

 

What practical advice would you give someone wanting to to take up your form of art professionally?

Process over outcome, be creative everyday.

 

Where can people see your art?
