Proposal:
My art explores my love of nature and the human form, frequently involving themes of mythology and folklore.
Working primarily in traditional pencil and pen mediums I can create detailed works with an attention to line-work and shading, with recent works including acrylic mixed over the sketch to create interest and add colour.
I enjoy creating art that everyone can find their own meaning in, often leaving my pieces untitled and open to interpretation.
