Son of tv personality, Thelma Mansfield, he is a largely self taught painter whose travels have helped in honing a style that, while difficult to pin down, is nevertheless individual and immediately recognisable. 
"I started in art college but left almost immediately - my year in college put me off art completely" says morris. "But I took some time out and came back more mature, and more carefree, with a clearer perspective on what I wanted to do." 
Morris' travels took him from France to Catalonia, and while Dublin is his main subject matter, his works seem to be suffused with both French sensibility and Mediterranean light. 
"When I relaxed, I became much better as an artist," he says. 
"My style is not a deliberate choice. What I had been painting previously morphed into what you see today, and I let the style come about by itself. I have always done my own thing and try not to be influenced, and it is possible that those who have influenced me are not my favourite artists. For example, I love Bacon, but my works look nothing like Bacon. In fact, the biggest influence that I have seems to have come from Barcelona's graffiti artists." 
If there is a touch of the Guerilla to Morris' paintings, it only adds to the sense of vibrancy that he manages to bring to the traditionally grey Dublin City. His painting is as reminiscent of mosaic as it is of the masters of the late 19th and early 20th Century, including the impressionists and post-impressionists; but it is nonetheless recognisably Dublin.
