Me working on 'The Devil', a collaborative piece with Esmee Asia Turlej
I graduated with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art from UWE Bristol in 2023. Since then, I’ve been working in digital marketing while running my own creative business on the side. In my free time, I take on commissions, organise exhibitions, and remain involved in community arts projects. I enjoy being busy with a range of hobbies and interests—most recently, I curated an exhibition for Maidstone Pride.
Creativity flows into everything I do. I always have multiple projects on the go, exploring different artistic avenues. My work often leans into the unusual, shaped by spontaneity rather than rigid structure. I prefer to let pieces unfold instinctively, with each painting becoming a kind of ritual—quick, expressive, and emotionally charged.
As my art developed through school and university, my use of colour became more vibrant, and I began to embrace a personal style. I moved away from the confines of realism, which is often praised in academic settings, and began celebrating imperfection. Mistakes and inaccuracy, to me, are what make a painting compelling. My work often acts as a spiritual retelling of a moment or feeling, transformed into something beautiful through colour and metallic paint.
Since graduating, I’ve also explored custom pieces like hand-painted clothing and shoes. The response to my shoe designs has been amazing, with growing interest in wearable art—including commissions for wedding day pieces. I’ve completely fallen in love with creating one-of-a-kind items that people can wear and cherish.
