PROJECTS
Welcome to my Projects page, where you can explore a selection of my individual projects, exhibitions, commissions, and creative work across painting and photography.
KINGSTON UNIVERSITY DEGREE SHOW 2026
This was the first painting I completed for my degree show, part of my Auditory Visions collection, now showing there. It reflects the calmer qualities of sound in the looping sound piece I composed (also playing in the enclosed space). Green was the first colour that came to mind—then the shapes followed. Letting the paint drip and move on its own was exciting, especially as it began forming patterns that reminded me of a forest.
ALL SAINTS CHURCH, PUTNEY COMMON SOLO EXHIBITION 2024
STRIVE is an abstract interpretation of the church, exploring colour, texture and form, with a hidden Christian cross within the composition. Beyond religion, the work reflects my own journey as an artist, marking an important moment in my first solo exhibition.
Harsh dark metal bars guard the baptism area of the church.
FLAVA 2025 - FINE ART EXHIBITION
PORTRAITURE / MIXED MEDIA
This is a portrait I did of my godmother, Virginia McKenna. It was an honour to give this to her, as she is someone I love and respect so much.
A close-up drawing done in 2018 of an imaginary face, focusing on skin texture and facial hair. Done in ink, pencil and oil pastels.
Completed in 2020, this painting depicts a DJ, inspired by the energy and atmosphere of live music. I was drawn to the movement, colour and intensity of the scene, using bold contrasts to capture the feeling of being immersed in the moment.

COMMISSIONS AND SALES
The Congregation became my biggest sale at the time, during my first solo exhibition at All Saints’ Church, Putney Common, in 2024. It was arguably one of my favourite paintings in the collection, so I was particularly pleased to see it recognised and acquired by someone who appreciated it in the same way I did.
Dorothy Tutin is a portrait of my grandmother, painted as a personal commission. It was a real honour to be asked to paint her, and the piece holds a particular significance for me as both an artist and a member of her family. Regretfully, I never had the honour of meeting her, but I wanted to create a portrait that captured not only her likeness, but something of her character and presence as well.
A small A4 pen drawing of the horrific act of racial violence involving George Floyd. Commissioned for an album cover for a musician friend's piece.

FRUITBOWL SERIES
Part of my Fruit Bowl series, this painting was created from life. I wanted to explore the vibrant colours and contrasting tones of the fruit, using loose brushwork to capture its form, texture and the way light falls across its surface.
Part of my Fruit Bowl series, this painting focuses on a single pear, exploring its shape, colour and texture.
Painted from lifeas part of my Fruit Bowl series, this work explores the simple beuty of everyday objects. I was particularly interested in the strong blue tones of the jug and the way the light and shadow brought the different shapes together.

CLIMATE CHANGE PROJECT 2022
Eye of the Storm is another painting as part of my Climate Change project while I was still in school. It took me a while to layer the paint the way I thought best imitated a hurricane, but I enjoyed the process immensely, as having a form such as a spiral to work with and finding the right textures for powerful, thick air in a powerful storm was a great challenge.
This was a painting inspired by a collection of photographs of tornados I did for my Climate Change project on climate change when I was at school. I wanted to enhance the colours and the texture to get a sense of drama and movement, almost sucking us into the picture.
A dense network of overlapping forms and restless marks creates an image that feels simultaneously organic and chaotic. The work explores the tension between structure and disorder, suggesting something alive, interconnected and constantly shifting beneath the surface.
