What Are Originals ?

Dean only creates original animal paintings in his bright, colourful unique style. “I have a passion for original artwork, there is nothing quite like the texture, vibrancy and drama of a large original piece standing before you.” Dean’s work is in very high demand on a global scale only in the space of four years. “I have been fortunate enough to paint for collectors near and far to home in Manchester including America, Dubai, Philippines, Portugal, Spain, London, Scotland and the UK, my goal is to keep pushing to spread my positive message as far as possible”.

Dean’s one of a kind, bespoke original paintings are hand crafted by himself with acrylic paint on canvas. “I love to work with acrylic paint as it allows me to layer up and create lots of texture within the piece. I also love the vibrancy and energy it portrays, it gives the painting life!”

Why Do I Only Paint Animals ?

Inspired by their beauty, honesty, colour, texture and emotional characteristics. Dean is also intrigued by the similarities we share with them. This connection we have, is displayed within the meaning behind his pieces, as our mentalities, he believes, have a strong link and inspiration to one another. This link can be used to unleash and push out stronger, kinder or tougher versions of ourselves which help us in the inevitably tough but wonderful journey of life.

Dean’s artwork is all about seeing the light and living life in colour. These colourful, almost abstracted pieces also show our ability to travel through and withstand darkness to connect us to light and positivity highlighting the power of positive thought and attitude. “You are stronger than you think.”
