Based in Perth, Western Australia and spent many years travelling around the outback looking at the great scenery this place has to offer, the most formative experience of which was living in the northern Kimberley town of Kununurra for a large part of his childhood which lead him towards his chosen career path. Entirely self taught, Ben’s work endeavours to capture his surroundings in a realist manner while still maintaining some painterly aspects to his pieces.Now working form his home studio in Kardinya, Ben has lately been focused on honing his skills outdoors painting plein-air, Ben's current output has diverged into two paths - one maintaining a strong focus on painting local Perth scenes, whilst dedicating night time studio hours working on large format cloudscapes which take many months to complete.
