"I'm fascinated with integrating new technologies with my paintings to shift the way viewers understand and engage with a traditional work of art.
In 2011 I discovered QR codes, which led me to researching, experimenting and creating QR codes in a painterly yet still scannable format. A little over a year later I was introduced to augmented reality and, as far as I'm aware, I was the first professional painter in Scotland and one of the first in the world to incorporate AR with an oil painting."
