He also runs workshops and has been a visiting lecturer at various schools and institutions.

"My work is essentially an exploration of Nature and a celebration of life and beauty. I’m far more comfortable painting this sentiment than I am saying it. I paint in order to explore, to seek truth and find joy in the process."
