About the work

My practice revolves entirely around drawing. I have a personal language of images and repeating motifs running throughout my larger more indulgent works, and the smaller pieces such as these feed into that or provide respite.

I mark time with my drawings, they are like flags in the ground or messages in bottles for myself and for anyone else. Much of this year was spent working in a gas mask and playing games like solitaire while waiting for things to happen so that I could move forward, and I draw gradient wheels as an exercise of recalibration following periods of time away from drawing.

Auction close and bidder extension

The auction closes at 9pm (BST) Monday 3rd July, however, if a bid is placed in the last two minutes, the auction end time will extend on that lot for an additional two minutes, or until all bidding has ceased. This is called Popcorn Bidding or Bidder Extension and gives all bidders an equal chance of winning.

Bid Increments

£50 increments for bids of £300 – £1,000

£100 increments for bids of £1,000 – £2,000

£250 increments for bids of £2,000 – £5,000

£500 increments for bids of £5,000 plus

Maximum bids

You are more likely to be the winning bidder if at the outset you place a maximum bid i.e. the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Your maximum bid is not visible to other bidders. If another bidder exceeds your maximum bid you will receive an automatic notification. If you have placed a maximum bid the auction site will automatically place bids on your behalf, but only as much is necessary to make sure that you remain the highest bidder, until it reaches your maximum bid. These automatic bids are placed in increments, as shown above.
