It's the 2nd January 2017 and i'm heading into my first full year as a freelance artist. I hope you all had a great 2016! For me I had a year of change, I made the bold move of leaving my permanent job of 7 years with the artist Damien Hirst and in turn leaving life on the North Devon coast to pursue my dream of working for myself back in my home city of Oxford. It feels exciting and sometimes scary to be heading into the world of working for yourself! The commissions i've taken on since leaving my job have been really enjoyable to do and it feels awesome to now take a lot of pride in work that I can call my own!! Here's to a good year ahead and a special thank you to my clients so far, and to the folk out there showing interest and support. Peace!
