My Bio
I'm a self taught artist who loves to draw in a realistic style and am quite fascinated with the textures and shades you can acquire from a single pencil. I love this way of drawing as it allows me to build layer upon layer to create the realistic outcome that I wish to achieve in my work. I use my images as inspiration and refer back and forth to them. I try to enhance my drawings and capture something that may not be in the original image already, whether that be more texture or just improvising with contrast to create more detail. Every mistake I make is another step closer to completion and an important lesson to take on board.
The great Albert Einstein once said:
"A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new".
I aim to practice and develop my skills further in the area of hyper realistic art to create great pieces of work.


My favourite Quotes:

"I dream my painting and then I paint my dream"- Vincent Van Gogh

"A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new."- Albert Einstein

"Logic will get you from A-Z; imagination will get you everywhere."- Albert Einstein

"I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious."- Albert Einstein

"You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind."- Mahatma Gandi

"F-E-A-R: has two meanings:
1. Forget Everything And Run or
2. Face Everything And Rise
the choice is yours"

"No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress. You're still way ahead of everyone who isn't trying"

" The key to success is for you to make a habit throughout your life of doing the things you fear."- Vincent Van Gogh

"Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and thinkers, but most of all surround yourself with those who see greatness within you"

"You will never know your limits unless you push yourself to them."

"Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me."- Carol Burnett

"Never discourage anyone who makes continual progress, no matter how slow."

"Daily Affirmation: I have every right to succeed as much as anyone else and with my knowledge, skills and abilities, I can always figure out and find whatever I need"- John Assaraf

" Nothing builds self-esteem and self-confidence like accomplishment."- Thomas Carlyle

"Whether you think you can, or you can't, your right."- Henry Ford

"People who are interested in doing something will do it when it's convenient; People who are COMMITTED, will do it no matter what."- Bob Proctor
