A symbolic representation of a mammogram examination. The breast not under examination is represented by a planet, highlighting that this is a disease women (and men) across the world have to contend with. The bluebird represents hope that one day a cure will be found — and that, for each lady, her mammogram screen will be clear, until the next time.

In the studio
The process.
Each piece moves through four slow stages — from first study to final signed surface.
01 — First marks
Every piece begins with thumbnail sketches and colour notes. I work out the rhythm of the composition long before any paint touches canvas.
02 — Building texture
Layers of palette-knife paint go down first — heavy, gestural and unapologetic. The under-layers carry the whole piece.
03 — Colour conversations
Teal against coral. Ochre against blush. I let colours argue with each other until they settle into something honest.
04 — The final breath
Final touches are made with a loaded brush — quick, considered, alive. The piece rests for two weeks before it leaves the studio.
