My artwork began through my love of photography , looking through photos that I have been fortunate enough to have taken in cities such as Paris , New York and London , and deciding on an architectural basis for my projects . Then , through discussion with my teachers , I began developing ideas through a variety of mediums that would allow me to portray the different ideas that the photos had suggested to me . Using printing , woodwork and painting I devised a portfolio that encompassed a variety of techniques and approaches , and began working .
The pieces that resulted were primarily sculptures , however both paintings and prints also appeared in the portfolio . Wood became a primary constituent of a lot of my sculptures and became a highlighted feature of many pieces . This process has been enormously rewarding and enjoyable and has acted as an avenue in which my creativity has been supported and materialised .
