Fletcher was initially interested in the concept of movement and its affects on the human form. This naturally led him to visualise sports - abstract portrayals of athletes and gymnasts. In 1985, he was approached by Sadlers Wells theatre in London to produce a painting for a performing Flamenco group.

Fletcher now concentrates on the actual figure, placing them in abstract spaces. He denies they are portraits and sees them as acts of self-expression, due to their simplistic nature. The viewer is invited to identify with the subject and project their own mood onto the painting.

Fletcher has worked full time as an artist for the past fifteen years, producing work that can be found in many private and corporate collections, including Chase Manhattan Bank and Rank Zerox.
