Drawing and painting have always been my first choice of expression. I survived those heddy days of art school in Leeds where conceptual and performance art were taking centre stage. Leeds College of Art was not really a “painting school”, but more of a wild conceptual art program which gave me the freedom to think outside the box.

 

During my career I have worked with many other different types of media in experiential environments, but my true creative direction has always been painting . It is such a direct and simple form of expression which can ask a lot of yourself and the viewer. It lives on and can still surprise us amidst this mad world  full of creative clutter.

 

I now live and paint in Cornwall with its rich artistic heritage and surrounded by its beautiful landscape and rugged coastline.
