Originally from Scotland, I immigrated to Canada in 2014. I taught Art and Design in Scottish Further Education colleges for over 22 years. In that time I experimented with many different techniques, mediums and styles, refining my skills to produce many portrait commissions for private clients, family and friends.
I started experimenting with the layering of my work and the inclusion of photo montage and collage a few years ago as I wanted my art works to be more than just simple portraits, and as different as possible from other artist's work. I want each piece I create to really tell the story of the person’s life. Most of my new portrait works are created at quite a large scale and take many hours to complete as every single image in my complex and colourful background collages is cut out and pieced together by hand. In my portraits I use a wide variety of mediums including pencil, colour pencil, fine-line pen, graphic marker, acrylic paint, inks and cut and layered paper. I am heavily influenced by music, movies, sports, advertising, graphic novels, comic books, iconography and the Pop Art masters.
