I began drawing and doodling as a pastime aged 7. Took GCSE Art plus Design and Communication (Graphics) at 6th form then didn’t really use it until my mid twenties when I began freelancing for a while as a graphic designer.
I’ve since drawn and painted for friends and used it professionally on rare occasions.
I paint and draw now largely because this area inspires me to do it and because it brings a sense of peace.
