'The Winged Being Of My Youth' No 3. 200cm x 69cm Oil and Indian Ink on Gesso on Canvas. 2025/26. When I was a kid living in a council house in London I would take myself of to the British Museum and encounter so many Winged beings and new worlds. I have such conflict in my mind now about such acquisitions, but as a kid they inspired and comforted me. This piece really comes from my dreams at that time and remembering a number of flying dreams. For the last 4 months I have been exploring these memories, I am finding the present conflicts so difficult. I can only imagine how difficulti it is for the humanity in those regions
