Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Phil studied Graphic Design, Fine Art, and Illustration, before settling in the UK back in 1993. He has exhibited successfully in Australia and the UK, and has completed several large scale commissions for private clients, ranging from the more simplistic portraits, to the incredibly detailed scenic works. Over the years, he has experimented with a wide variety of mixed media, but has now perfected a style using oil and acylics on canvas. Having been born in Australia, and after travelling quite extensively throughout India, his passion for nature, and rich vibrant colour, has manifested itself into his work, and inspiration comes from a wide variety of life experiences. Some works have taken several months to complete, as the subtle use of his mediums have required many applications to achieve the exact finish and high standard of workmanship that goes into each creation.
