This was a portrait of my uncle done on a visit to India September 2014. He sat very still whilst watching football on tv, his favourite team Arsenal, looking very noble and wise , as he is, and telling stories of his past.

'Limits' - Performance drawing at the Folkestone Triennial Fringe Festival

This drawing was created live over four days through August 2012 and is part of an ongoing series titled 'Limits'. begun in 2011 at the Folkestone Triennial Fringe Festival. The process was to stand on the paper and draw using both feet, overall the drawing took around 12 hours. The fun part was meeting the locals in the hustle and bustle of the market nearby and in some cases creating portraits of them as they looked down at the work. The work was video documented.
