STRIPY ART STUDIO

I have been painting landscapes that are instantly recognisable but modern and striking in design for 25 years.
The stripes are painted freehand in acrylics on canvas.
Painting stripes can be intense work and sometimes I feel the need to paint freestyle and get creative with other mediums.

I also create a popular range of graphic travel prints of towns and villages around Isle of Wight and the U.K.

I find inspiration wherever I go. I am constantly taking photographs or sketching, excited by a beach I may have seen a hundred times or the lay of the land in a different light or season.

I am a keen walker and enjoy writing poems. I have lived by the coast most of my life.
Born in Watford in 1968. Moved to the Isle of Wight with my family in 1979.

I started painting in 2000, selling vibrant art to visitors and locals on the Isle of Wight.
I moved to Dorset in 2012 which enabled me to explore this beautiful county and branch out with my art.
I returned to the Island in June 2018.
I am now represented by galleries here on the I.O.W, Dorset and Wiltshire.
My work has also been shown in America via the London based gallery, Trowbridge Gallery.
I am a member of the National Acrylic Painters Association and have exhibited with them at the Crypt, St Ives, Cornwall and Kennaway House in Devon.
