I am a painter and art educator living in Yateley, Hampshire. As a painter, I have exhibited in Hampshire, Reading, Margate, London and Edinburgh, including Women’s Society of Artists and ING Discerning Eye. Mostly working in oils, but also watercolour, pencil and printmaking, my paintings are about challenging stereotypes in representation of socially disadvantaged groups, and very often about motherhood. I teach painting and drawing regularly to small groups and one-to-one. I love to give people confidence to explore different mediums as well as their own creativity.

He makes music and art with computers and lights.  He has worked internationally as a Professional Dog Photographe since 2013r.  He was arrested as a teenager for hacking an estate agent.  The BBC made a short documentary about him.  He used to write for Mute magazine.  He’s worked on many secret projects.  In 2002 his Spamradio project was nominated for a Webby Award.  Between 2002 and 2010 he taught free weekly hacking workshops in Limehouse & Shoreditch.  Born in Aldershot, he moved to London at 18 and moved back in 2022 to rescue a dog.
