Three Amigos Painting

I started my artistic career working as a stage technician/carpenter at various theatres in London. After completing a Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) course, I had the opportunity to teach and travel abroad. I travelled to various countries, and finally settled in São Paulo, Brazil where I taught English for 15 years. During this time, I completed an art and design course at Panamericana School of Art in Sao Paulo and achieved a Diploma in Fine Art. I also studied art history with a well-known Brazilian art critic and shared a studio with the painter and sculptor Ilka Lemos. My partner, Alex Rezende and I then moved to Paraty, Rio de Janeiro state, where we opened our art studio. We lived and worked as artists there for 5 years before returning to the UK. We spent two years in Bristol where we showed our work at various venues and then moved to Liverpool where we are currently based. I have exhibited work in Liverpool,Southport and Chester.
