I like to use black and white imagery as a base for the subject matter adding colour with paper
or paint where i feel it needs defacing or not.
The subject is dictacted from the moment i see the first image which will develop from
a story in my head based on that one image to putting it all together in front of me.
I try not to spend too much time on a piece as it loses it's spontaneous flow it's important for
me to make it feel as natural as possible.
Sometimes i will destroy it when i have spent hours on it.
My inspiration comes from Dada and Surreal art which includes Monty Python with a dash
of Carry on thrown in and a 3/4 time signature left of the traffic light's past the turnip and straight
on.
