Jonathan will share how he develops ideas into projects, including his work with the NHS, projects connected to his own mental health challenges, and his ongoing personal undertakings.

He will explore commissioned work, from individual pieces of wall art to producing a body of work designed to represent healing for people coping with trauma.

His approach to capturing and creating images is often driven by a desire to express a particular mood or emotion, the finished pieces frequently become what he describes as “wall art”.
