Questions Answered Interview at Spitalfields Market

I exhibited art at Spitalfields Arts Market in the early stages of my career on a random basis. I returned in 2017 and have been there regularly ever since. I started exhibiting art in 2003 and became a full time artist in 2005. In the past I exhibited at Grand Designs Live for many years and at AAF Battersea and Edinburgh Art Fair more recently.

Many people visit Spitalfields Market and it offers a vibrant selection of art. There are also some beautiful and interesting designer maker goods. The street food is also great. You can buy art direct from the artists. You can ask directly about their inspiration and see the many different techniques used in the variety of paintings, photography, digital art and sculpture. It is a small niche exhibition of about 12 artists that varies from month to month along with some regulars who use Spitalfields as their main place to sell. The art is varied and there is something to suit all tastes. From small prints to large contemporary original art. Many artists work on commission. For corporates and individuals, for office or home.

Spitalfields has a wonderful community of artists and general traders. The artists and general stallholders are welcoming and offer high-quality art and interesting products from all over the world. Many of the artists are local. Everyone can buy, commission or chat with an individual artist, which is a wonderful opportunity. The whole shopping experience is unique. The Spitalfields community work together to make the experience of visiting personal and special. It is a pleasure to work there. The warmth of the other traders gets us through the colder weather.

Creative Process

I put unique elements in each work of art sometimes fusing my memories and travel experiences with special details from clients. I include anniversary dates, birthdays and even create skylines that emerge from peoples memories, backgrounds and individual stories told in buildings and landscapes or abstract colours.

London as Inspiration

London is a wonderful and vibrant city old buildings juxtaposed against new. It has something to offer in all seasons. I am constantly inspired by the reflections in both the pavements on a rainy day and in the River Thames. I admire the crisp outlines of the architecture on a bright sunny day. The mixture of building heights and shapes all together. Ups and downs, twists and turns. Different building colours, culture and expression. It is a wonderful city.

Being a full time artist since 2005. Perhaps best answered in pictures. Check out my on the wall and sold paintings. All thanks to God.
