I have recently graduated with a First Class Honours in Architectural and Interdisciplinary Studies from The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London. As well as developing my freelance work as an artist, I am keen to work within the creative industry. I have a range of experience within design, from experimenting with drawing during a module at the Slade School of Fine Art, to exploring media such as film and sound installation. My degree in AIS has allowed me to explore a wide range of disciplines that have enriched my creative practice. As a freelance artist my work explores a range of media, from working with watercolour, ink and pen to film and photography.
I have a strong knowledge of Adobe Design Software such as InDesign, Photoshop, and have basic knowledge of Adobe Premier Pro, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Audition. I work to the best of my ability in everything that I do, demonstrating precision, care and pride which I hope to use to benefit my employer.
Projects
- Banana Strawberry AppleNarrating Perception is a continuation of Image to Reality - Journey. It examines the relationship between image and reality through a variety of different media. By identifying journey as the gap between image and reality, the project concludes in a film installation and book that explores the way in which journey manipulates our own preconceptions of a place. There are three fruits depicted in the film Banana, Strawberry, Apple, taking the form of a tryptic. Each film has one main narrative

I am a self employed freelance artist, and have been selling and distributing cards consisting of my own artwork since 2014. Alongside this I also take commissions that range from animal and family portraits to my more abstract and contemporary work. I enjoy exploring different drawing methodologies and discovering new techniques that influence both my more technical and abstract work. More recently my work has been featured in Savage the UCL Arts and Culture Journal and has also been used as a design for the on stage banner used by the band Cassia.
My degree in Architectural and Interdisciplinary Studies has enriched my creative practice, allowing me to take modules at the Slade School of Fine Art and in History of Art. However one of the most significant modules I have taken was a design and creative practice module that after having been given a stimulus and brief, would allow me to create my own project and explore an array of different media.
Throughout the three years I have explored sound installations, as well as model making and drawing but I have particularly grown interested in film. I enjoy all aspects of the film process, from creating the concept and storyboard, to actually producing, filming and editing. Film has become another art form that I now explore in my own creative practice.
