NEW LOOK WEBSITE: I would just like to take this opportunity to apologise for my lack of updates on my website throughout 2010 and early 2011. I have taken something of a slight break from exhibiting my work and had to focus on other aspects of life for a short while. But the good news is that I am back on form again and feeling incredibly motivated and creative, after what has been a tough personal year! So... I have made my website look great, with a fresh look and a couple of new pieces of illustration in the illustration gallery. I hope you like the changes, and I have started a new Fine Art project that I am super excited about, but more news on this as and when! Thanks for all the mails, they mean the world to me!

NEW WORK-The Candy Floss Lady: I would like to introduce a new art project to you! The Candy Floss Lady was originally an idea I had a few years ago, about a beautiful mystical self-obsessed woman who used her looks to fulfil her own selfish desires. I am really happy with the finished series, one of the pieces is included the Mixed Media Art gallery so please have a look. (02/2010)
