NYMPHAEA

Dramatic and vivid, yet simultaneously calm and full of positive vibes, this beautiful abstract piece studies the light, colour and forms of nymphaea floating on deep blue waters. Despite the traditional theme, the painting is very contemporary in style and injects vibrant tones into a space, whilst remaining delicate in nature. This painting was chosen for exhibition in Blue Blood Gallery in Prague, in 2021-2022.

STILL WATERS IV

Full of light, and yet vibrant with jewel tones, this contemporary abstract lends a sense of tranquility to its surroundings.

THE EDGE

The inspiration behind this contemporary abstract was the notion of standing high up, and looking down at dawn breaking across the city. The work has a dynamic feel, and a great deal of movement, to bring across the idea of the city awakening to the hustle and bustle of daily urban life.
A sense of depth gives an almost vertiginous feel and the use of a metallic sheen, brings a light to the piece, reflecting the rising sun and the ethereal colours of the early hours.

PENDULUM OF SMILES

This abstract artwork is a optimistic, uncompromising, contemporary piece. It takes the `Action and Reaction` law of physics as a metaphor for the ups and downs of life and reminds us that for every downward swing in life, an upward swing is just around the corner.
Definitely not a shrinking violet, this vibrant painting will brighten and bring joy to your space.

STILL LIVES III

This is the third painting in the Still Lives series, which considers how our modern lives are anything but still. The work takes a bunch of flowers and the speed at which they go over, as a metaphor for the speed at which our lives pass us by if we don`t take the time to appreciate the here and now. It encourages us to be present and to live in the moment.
