Making art without a plan

Описание: This week, I'm playing, exploring and testing ideas around self-portraits. I have no idea where I'm headed - just a few ideas I know I want to test out. 2026 is my year of experimentation, which means I am allowed to try anything, do anything, and make anything. So my current work combines collage, drawing, paintings and a variety of media. Watch as I work my way through two very different studies.

I've also included a quick dog walk and some renovation updates because life goes on :)

🎨 The Artist’s Diary is my ongoing vlog series about life as an artist in the north of England — the experiments, the hard bits, the surprises, and the honest reality of making art day after day.
