About the Artist

I am a artist, writer, researcher, museum volunteer, one-time web copywriter and general free-roaming creative. Within my visual art practice, I am mostly concerned with nominally two-dimensional creative forms, consisting of drawing, painting, printmaking and photography; my constant and incisive flitting between different media is a key characteristic of my work, and my principal interests of present are the possible ways of interlinking these disparate themes and media, arts writing and publishing, and the more general theoretrical and cultural relationship of the text or word to the visual image.

I am a member of Northern Print Studio, Newcastle upon Tyne; MIMA Friends; Middlesbrough Arts People; Cleveland and Teesside Local History Society; and the arts collective of 2009 MA Art and Design graduates, CollectiveOne, and have written Degree Show reviews for the A-N Unedited website, as well as regional exhibition reviews at the Teesside University Students' Union newspaper, P.T.O. (later The Terrace Star), the Middlesbrough Evening Gazette and my own blog.
