"I work in oil on canvas and ink on paper. My paintings deal with colour and form, bold gestural lines vie with smaller marks all anchored by fine lines. I observe and translate my subjects and feel the necessity of approaching work with energy and speed. My drawings employ a similar approach but with the obvious reduction to monochrome.
My chosen subjects range from landscape, through gardens and ponds, to sheep and snowscapes. I also explore the human figure in its environment and I paint a small number of portrait commissions each year.
I trained in Fine Art Painting at Falmouth School of Art, have worked full time as a painter since 1985 and have exhibited widely. I have had many solo shows in London, Bath, Henley, Oxford, York, Rye, Greenwich Connecticut and Paris. I have also exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery, The Royal Academy, The Royal Society of Portrait Painters and international art fairs".
