Gallery Representation   Northcote Gallery, London TAG Fine Art, London   Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork   These pieces are smaller versions of prints inspired by my Grandfather's stamp collection. His stamps would feature a delicate painting of a fish against a vibrant flat-coloured background, and so I have taken the same idea, but combined it with my paintings of birds. I want each "stamp" print to be a small yet powerful burst of colour and life. Each bird is painted how I "see" them: poised, elegant, and characterful.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.
