Artist Statement
Organic abstract inspired by two of my favourite things in life. When one pours the cream into the coffee, there is that beautiful flowering, which is depicted here, capitalising on the contrast between the rich darkness and creamy white. Taking a coffee is a moment to stop the day and enjoy the luxury of contemplation for me. I use this time to ponder the direction of the pieces I'm working on and to practise stillness.

Artist Profile
Born: 1970
Hometown: St. Leonards-On-Sea
Based in: Sussex
My training was in Philosophy and art only found me in my later life. I prefer to engage with larger canvases -they give one so much freedom. My painting style tends to fall into two main camps. On the one hand, a nebular, ethereal body of work, which expresses a certain state of almost prayerful devotion. The other is a more design oriented style. I have work in collections all around the world and have been featured in curated collections by Saatchi.
