‘Is this the stop?’ 2025, Acrylic and air brushed ink on canvas.

Inspired by the looming vista of a train carriage - my painting ‘is this the stop?’ aims to capture the diverse lifestyles and the foreign yet relatable daily routines taken by strangers. Im obsessed with capturing moments that describe our shared humanity, and almost hyper observationally detailing the small details. I use a style that is accessible - a faux-naivity for many reasons. The main reason being to evoke the audience members understanding or recognition of themselves within the work (almost a as a prompt).

This may uniquely be found within their own memory, a friends or even a memory held within another art form. My understanding and interpretation is unimportant to my work - the significance lyes in the understanding of each viewer. I chose to describe a train ride here because it is a moment that holds vast experiences, constant movement, unique characters and loads of diversity - Wether it be a trip to or from work, a grocery trip, a tourist holiday, or a new adventure.

‘Wet sock’ 2025, Acrylic on canvas
Hate the feeling of a wet sock - I didn’t even see the puddle.

How did the water get out here ?
The mat is right there.

Untitled (public bathroom) 2025, Acrylic on canvas.

'I didn't know they closed' 2025, investigates the disorienting discovery of a beloved local restaurant's closure through faux-naive figurative painting. Using distorted proportions and bold colours, the work transforms this mundane yet jarring moment into meditation on contemporary uncertainty. Point-of-view perspective situates viewers within the scene, deploying ambiguity to invite personal recognition of similar losses within our increasingly unstable shared environments.

‘I wish it were casual Friday’ 2025,

Longest day of my life, how long until lunch?
I guess I’ll do this for the rest of my life then.
The executive partner just walked past..
Are my socks silly enough ?
At least it’s Wednesday.
I need another coffee.
Why do employees make shrines describing their lives outside the office?
