artist’s statement

My work recreates the innocence and mystique of childhood stories. I blend texture and colour adapting or replacing elements using Photoshop to enhance the cinematic feel of photographs and digital art.

Drawing inspiration from fairy tales, history, myth and fantasy I create images evocative of another time and place. My shoots typically take place outdoors using natural locations as atmospheric backdrops. My work is influenced by the pre-Raphaelites and their depictions of sensual beauty.

I create images that draw the viewer into a story that provides an escape from day to day realities.
