Portrait & landscape artist from the West Midlands. I also love music, gigs, books & travel.
More work on my latest painting, Urban Freedom/Wounded over the past few days.
The face, hands & blackbird are just about there, so I'll be working more on the buildings next. I want the main figure to almost dissolve into the architecture, plus there'll be some figures behind.

More work on my skeletal blackbird #painting today! I've worked mainly on the burning sky, creating textures through glazing and scumbling. This blackbird shall rise like a phoenix from the flames 🔥

My latest #painting, glitched signals, is pretty much finished! This piece relates to our consumption of content/data and the often negative effect this can have on us as human beings. We're tied to our tech, but is it glitching us?
