I make collages and assemblages from my collection of vintage magazines, books and movie posters. Any idea I have usually starts with a single image I'm particularly struck by. I'll then add bits and take bits away until something starts to click and a story emerges, I'll then hunt around for other images to re-enforce the story. I try to create dramatic scenes in my work, which are often influenced by songs I'm listening to or books I'm reading at the time as well as real life.
