I'm a self-taught artist from Manchester who began painting during lockdown. While I enjoy painting portraits, my main focus is The Bluemans, a collection inspired by my love of storytelling and fiction. These works aim to enchant viewers and convey narratives through symbolic imagery. Influenced by archetypes, symbolism, and fairy tales, I strive to evoke the timeless storytelling of a past when paintings conveyed meaning to those who couldn't read, connecting us to the magic of visual stories.
