Detail from Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto, 1st movement (Synaesthesia 155), 2019
I am a visual artist based in Merseyside, UK.
Music is a major influence on my work. I create visual representations of music and sound in colour, inspired by my experiences of the phenomenon of sound-colour synaesthesia – when I listen to music, each note of the musical scale is perceived as a different colour.
My abstract paintings are geometric (patterns of transcribed music or recorded sounds), expressive (instinctive synaesthetic responses made by manipulating the colours on the paper or canvas whilst listening to the music), and layered combinations of these styles.
In my spare time, I play violin and viola in several local amateur orchestras; this provides some of the choices of music for my paintings, but I am also inspired by the wide range of music I listen to.
For commissions, clients choose the music (a complete piece of music, or I can tailor the design to focus on representing favourite sections or themes) and the style of painting (geometric, expressive or layered), to produce a personalised artwork.
Please contact me if you have any questions, are interested in purchasing any available work or would like to enquire about a commission.
