A bird’s eye view of a folded patchwork landscape filled with an intense saturation of colour and patterns. I populated the painting with a mix of Persian tiles, Indian bedspread, Chinese cushions, and a Nordic jumper which fill the canvas with patterns and deep gorgeous colours. It feels like these will come alive and re-emerge in the sleeper’s dreams. I also enjoyed the extra narrative of the doll on the bed, of ‘The Woman Who Swallowed a Fly,’ which with its patterned dress added a fairy tale feel to this piece.

A painting of Vanessa, a personal trainer at my local gym and her wife. I wanted to celebrate the miracle of birth, made more so as two women come together to create and nourish new life. Vanessa is holding her wife’s baby, a scene which achieves unusual balance because next time her wife will carry her baby. The composition is one of strength with them forming a triangle balanced by a somewhat abstract geometric background. Painted in a limited zorn palette.

£2300 (As exhibited.)
