About me…

Hello and welcome to my site…I’m a multidisciplinary artist and poet living on my narrowboat Ruby.I’m passionate about many different outlets for expression. These include mural painting, traditional and digital drawing, portrait painting and CARICATURES. I also write and perform Spoken Word poetry and Haiku.After working in the Animation industry I moved into collaborating and taking part in group art exhibitions and commercial work while living in Scotland around 2011.I have since been involved in many street art projects, exhibitions and private commissions.I moved onto my narrowboat midway through 2024 and love it. I am currently offering mural services on boats and vans as well as bespoke art commissions.


Transforming spaces with the power of art…

Through my art I try to capture movement and action with the use of dynamic angles and strong poses, when creating images of both people and nature.I offer:Murals
Caricatures
Portraits
…for all special occasions eg.Christmas
Birthdays
Weddings
Leaving gifts and more.

Bringing colour to the waterways!

Ruby is my floating home, a forty three foot narrowboat I’ve been living on since the summer 2024.Since painting her unique mural in August which led to the locals nicknaming her ‘Ruby the Graffiti Boat’, she’s created quite a stir and the jobs have been rolling in.With several projects in the pipeline over the winter 2024 and leading into summer 2025 things are looking exciting! These include themed full boat murals, names and locations as well as colour characters.If you’re interested in getting a mural, graphic or piece of sign writing done on your boat get in touch today to discuss how I can help bring your vision to life! :)
