Q1. Who or what has most influenced your artistic journey?
George Stubbs, the equestrian artist: his attention to detail, and his study of anatomy is truly amazing. I love spending time studying his work. However, after studying Jackson Pollock at art college and understanding his energy and the flow of the pigment in the paint, I used Pollock's technique, and his process to get a representational image of my subject.
