After the Feast

Artist Statement

Drawing is an important part of my artistic practice. All the major changes that have happened in my paintings have come out of drawings and then been translated onto canvas.

I like to draw in an fluid way, using charcoal and a wet brush. I deal with any changes that need to be made by using collaged paper and redrawing over the top, I like the fracturing of space that happens with this method and it also frees me from the fear of making mistakes. Often drawings will take weeks to resolve as I keep them in the studio and slowly make changes.
