I paint the world I live in using the paint I make in my own perspective. I prefer to contribute and collaborate with others rather than compete with them so I don’t enter competitions, I’ve always liked to do my own thing.

First job was painting T shirts when I was 13. First public commission was at 17.

I studied Interactive Arts at Manchester School of Art, which discouraged painting. Also at the Escuela de Belles Artes de Barcelona, Spain and Uniwersytet Mikołaja Kopernika, Poland.

Studied paint chemistry, mathematics and programming from books, journals and attending conferences.

I have research papers and artwork published in Joint Mathematical Meetings, Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, The Bridges Organization, Generative Art international Conferences.

I am on the program committee for the Bridges Organization who promote interdisciplinary work in art and mathematics based in the US.

I have exhibited and have work in collections across the world.

Awarded support from Manchester International Arts, The European Union, Manchester Growth Hub.
Joined Manchester Academy of Fine Arts.
