Surrealism is probably the first genre of art that captured my imagination as a teenager and I have found it a useful theme for exploring concepts and ideas.
These are usually isolated paintings of an idea not a series of works.

This drawing was a collaboration between myself and photographer Nathan Milner.
He had taken these photos expressing mental health issues of anxiety and depression and thought they’d be more expressive as an artwork so I decided to give it a go. Initially it was going to be in black and white but I used the red to enhance the claustrophobic feeling of the emotional state. Originally called Self Loathing I changed it to Red Right Hand after the Nick Cave song -
