Captain Kidd Pub on the River Thames at Wapping
£400.00
This oil painting captures the historic Captain Kidd Pub, a classic English pub located along the River Thames in Wapping. Named after the infamous pirate William Kidd, who met his end at the nearby Execution Dock, the pub is steeped in maritime lore and echoes Wapping’s long association with London’s docklands and river trade. This particular view offers a glimpse from the Thames, highlighting the pub’s unique riverside charm and the surrounding architecture that defines Wapping’s character.
In this piece, I’ve aimed to capture the distinctive colours and textures of Wapping—its converted warehouses, aged brickwork, and the soft reflections on the water—all of which tell the story of the area’s transformation from bustling industrial port to a vibrant, reimagined neighbourhood. The subtle blend of heritage and modern life is reflected in the colours and composition, honouring both the history and the evolving identity of this iconic riverside locale.

Oxford dreaming spires
£700.00
Oxford's dreaming spires, Early Spring Morning - looks out towards Oxford in the distance, just as the day is starting. The warm pink sunrise skyline is kept loose and simplified — more of a silhouette than a detailed view of the city.
The Oxfordshire landscape foreground does most of the work. The fields are built up with repeated marks, giving a sense of texture and early spring growth starting to come through. There’s of rhythm in it, almost like the land waking up.
The darker bands break it up and hold the composition together, while the lighter greens push everything back towards the horizon.
The sky is soft and warm, sitting just above the city and giving it that early morning feel - a city still dreaming.

View from behind the Shard to Wapping, Rotherhithe and Canary Wharf
£600.00
In this piece, I’ve captured the sweeping view from behind The Shard, looking out across Wapping, Rotherhithe, and towards the towering structures of Canary Wharf. Painted in my signature patchwork style, the canvas is filled with vibrant blocks of color, each representing the diverse neighborhoods and architecture that make up this part of London. The Thames winds through the composition, guiding the eye and creating a sense of flow amidst the structured grid of shapes. By abstracting the landscape into a colorful mosaic, I aimed to reflect both the dynamism and complexity of London, where each area is distinct yet interconnected. This contemporary style brings a fresh perspective to the cityscape, offering a unique way to experience London’s iconic riverside areas.

Ball Boy 2 – A Seasonal Adventure
Ball Boy 2 – A Seasonal Adventure
Ball Boy is Back - A Seasonal Adventure
After the introduction of Ball Boy, I’m excited to share the next step in Ball Boy’s story - a seasonal adventure that carries him (and us) through the rhythm of the year.
This new piece grew quite naturally from where Ball Boy left off. That sense of movement, of bouncing forward with curiosity and lightness, felt like it still had more to say. Rather than standing still, Ball Boy keeps going - through spring mornings, summer warmth, autumn winds, and into the calm glow of winter.
What I’ve enjoyed most in writing this follow-up is leaning into the idea that happiness isn’t fixed to one place or moment. It’s something that moves with us. Just like Ball Boy, it shifts with the seasons, changes shape, and shows up in small encounters - a bird in a tree, a dog on a harbour pier, or the quiet hush before snowfall.
The rhythm and repetition remain at the heart of it. I’ve always liked the idea that …
Commissioned artwork – London’s Skyline from Westminster to Canary Wharf
Commissioned artwork – London’s Skyline from Westminster to Canary Wharf
I was thrilled to be commissioned to create this piece, capturing the iconic London skyline from Westminster, past The Shard, The City, and out towards Canary Wharf. There’s something truly special about working on a piece that celebrates London, a city that’s constantly changing yet so rich with history. This commission allowed me to bring my vision of London’s energy and diversity to life, and I couldn’t wait to dive in.
In this piece, I wanted to capture the essence of the city using bold, geometric blocks of colour. By abstracting the landscape, I aimed to give a sense of London’s vibrancy and complexity, from the flowing Thames to the unique architecture that defines each district. The soft, pastel tones bring a calmness to the composition, while the structure of the shapes and lines adds a sense of movement and rhythm. It was important to me that the painting not only represented these iconic landmarks but also reflected the character and colour of London’s …
Creating “Ball Boy”
Creating “Ball Boy”
"Ball Boy" started as a simple idea while watching Stickman and the Gruffalo on TV one Christmas. I thought I'll give that a go, and came up with a character called Ball Boy. The simple idea of how a ball can come in all shapes and sizes inspired me to write the poem "Ball Boy" —a friendly character who brings joy wherever he goes.
Writing the Poem
I wanted to capture the energy and fun of Ball Boy in a way kids could relate to. So, I crafted a short poem about all the things that make Ball Boy special: he's there for every game, loved by kids and even by dogs in the park. I kept the verses light and fun, perfect for reading aloud.
Illustrating Ball Boy
Once the poem was perfected, I started working on illustrations. I wanted them to feel just as lively as the poem, showing Ball Boy in action, rolling through grass, bringing smiles to kids, and sharing moments with pets. It was a hands-on process, but seeing the illustrations come tog…
