Charcoal drawings of inspiring cities

My art is informed by my experiences of urban life by expressing this is charcoal for an illustrative approach to making art. Whilst staying loosely true to the natural form of representation I found myself making direct reference to the natural world around me. By recording my vision of the world I use the immediate process of taking photographs to find meaning in what I see. As a starting point, my photographs take on new meaning to interpret my visions – a considered combination of composition and an accidental/expressive approach.

The artworks featured in the following galleries are mostly drawings on paper or canvas. In essence I love to draw! I take photographs, print them, then consider what elements to include in the final drawing.
