Live Painting
Live painting in front of a large audience or the general public, all while against the clock, certainly creates some pressure and entertainment. Producing live paintings at high profile Gala dinners, at huge sporting events in arenas such as Wembley Stadium and the Emirates Golf club in Dubai and for Team GB in Carnaby Street London is something I love doing. I thoroughly enjoy and thrive under the pressure of showing people what I can do.
