As part of my studies in Edinburgh I have been fortunate to gain a place at Purchase College, New York on exchange. So with a lot of my work my environment really impacts on my work and New York from the word go has given my eyes enough inspiration. Unlike in Edinburgh I am able to mis my choice of electives and focus here at Purchase so whilst learning some new skills which will help my contemporary practice I am also able to learn some skills which I have been itching to do so that will further my illustration. I am currently getting a chance to do woodcut and lithography which I am already seeing potential for future work.
Here are some photos of recent trips into the city seeking inspiration for current work and projects..
