People ask why I took up oil painting. I can trace it back through a series of projects to this photo/projection session 3 years ago with Liv Mac . Liv certainly inspired and encouraged me to take up the dark arts so she is substantially to blame! Thanks Liv!

Liv is a full-time artist these days - make sure you follow her on the socials!
