About this artwork
Two Thousand and Twenty - My work is entirely centred on the ordinary and everyday of human experience and existence.
This piece, I believe, charts the extraordinary year that is two thousand and twenty and doesn't deviate from my usual illustrative descriptions of the humble objects and emotional tales of our ordinary lives; and, the impact of this year has forced us to refocus on the things that matter more to us more than ever. This piece symbolises… not the ordinary and everyday of the individual, as my paintings usually examine, but the ordinary and everyday of hundreds and millions of people that has evolved from this year.
There is nothing greater to the ordinary and everyday than the simple beat of the heart and when that ceases then so does the attachment to the objects that define us as individuals.

« I'm a collector and artist so I enjoy immensely learning how my peers have different approaches to what they paint, and I like to consider the human condition in everything. »
