I was born in 1956 in Twickenham, Middlesex. UK . After a varied career mainly working with my hands in engineering and building and then teaching for over 25 years, i have decided to spend my time painting . After a lifetime of sketching, painting , reading and watching other artists , i settled on pastels and oil painting as my favourite mediums to work in.
I now dedicate the majority of my time to my detailed landscape and coastal paintings taken from my photographs so each photograph and painting is unique .
I take great pleasure in capturing a moment in time and reproducing it on canvas or board. Nature provides such incredible subjects .
As you will see some of these photographs are for sale as prints .
Lately i have been producing some more abstract work in acrylic paint , these are very organic and great fun to produce . PS Please come back and check as i have just started building this website and more paintings and photographs will be added regularly
