Research and Development

My research focuses around natural history, material culture and science. I am not a scientist, but I use academic research as well as a strongly aesthetic led interest to inform my work and development. I have particular current interests in ontology, phylogenesis and ethology.

I spend much time outside in the environment painting, making my own observations and gathering research from a wide range of sources. Working and speaking with researchers, academics, museum curators, scientists and other professionals is of constant and ongoing inspiration.
