New work is emerging over these winter days between the long shifts and dark evenings. Sleepily moving into Christmas and a new year that is more than welcome to arrive. Good things are brewing 🌄🎉
Painting, Photography, and the Living Archive This week I write from Cuttack, India, where I’m visiting my family. Being away from my usual pace in the UK gives me space to slow down, and focus on what's really important. In this Slow Burn, I

Aren’t you going to Paint Something Pretty? What’s the balance in making art that holds both contextual weight and aesthetic beauty? In the spirit of the *Slow Burn* project, this post steps out of chronological order as I felt moved to
Quay Arts group exhibition SOFT is still open until the 4th October 2025! The show explores the theme of SOFT, with a diverse collection of works across painting, sculpture and installation. The exhibition touches upon the idea of softness through t
This is the beginning of a long-form series I’ve been working on for a while now — called Slow Burn. It’s a blog for artists, and for anyone who believes (or is learning to believe) that meaningful work takes time. Slow Burn is an
