Artist Interview

What medium do you work with, and why have you chosen them?

I work with oils for their ability to create rich colours and depth. When travelling or want to paint Alla Prima, I use gouache paints.

How does your artwork get from initial concept to exhibition stage?

When I work on a botanical painting, I take many photos and draw sketches in the rainforest or the environment I want to depict, so I can recreate the feeling of it in the studio.
