The month of August is now behind us and the magic days in Le Marche already seem like a faraway dream…
As we enter the month of September and get ready for our next Exciting Adventure, a part of me still wants to be in that golden landscape, staring at the wall while listening to the peaceful chirping of the crickets 🦗🦗🦗

Mountains or butterfly wings? Something delicate moving through something ancient. Forms meeting, separating and leaving traces of one another behind…

Now available as signed and numbered giclée prints in small limited editions.

Six recent works on paper, produced on archival Hahnemühle paper in editions of 10.

The series explores forms meeting one another — shapes approaching, overlapping, resisting, softening, and beginning to transform through that encounter.

Several prints have sold and I’m very grateful for the support around the edition so far.

For details, please send me a DM

Ça ne tient qu’à des gouttes d’eau💧💧💧

Sketchbook days in Tarifa, Spain.
Watercolour conversations and encounters of forms leading to the emergence of something New.
A reminder that everything is interconnected, and that sometimes the world hangs together by nothing more than drops of water.

Slow Unfurling
2026
Acrylic on paper
42 x29.7cm
.
In this series of works on paper, layers build and recede, tracing a quiet movement between pressure and expansion, where structure softens and something new starts to emerge. Sitting between becoming and being.

Following that same quiet threshold: a moment just before release, where form is no longer fixed but in transition, suspended between containment and emergence.

Thank you to everyone who came through for Brixton Open Studios last weekend — I loved sharing the new work with you and all the conversations that unfolded in the space.

For those who couldn’t make it, visits are possible by appointment. The studio is (surprisingly) still tidy, the walls are breathing, and the light has been especially good lately.
