Welcome
My main form of work has been using woodcut and lino printing. The wood grain has a lovely natural texture of its own, which can control the images and also adds to them.
In the past I have exhibited my work successfully in various places,locally and others.Mall Galleries,Chaple Gallery,Devon.Also including my work being hung six times at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions Further more I have been selected again for 2019.
At Farnham College of Art I studied Fine Art Printmaking,achieving my Degree in 1991.Before that I did a Pre-Foundation at Maidstone College of Art.
The inspiration for my work comes from my surroundings. My Mother owns a small holding with lots of animals in the the countryside on the North Downs of Kent, which is where I grew up. Due to both my parents being artists, I was encouraged at an early age to sketch from life.
I now am part of a farm cooperative.4 of us running a small holding at Green farm in Kent, which is inspiration for my art.
Now I work in my Father's old studio, he went to college at the Royal Academy and was an excellent portrait and landscape painter until his early death in 1988.
My Mother, a talented painter in her own right, has also influenced and encouraged me to see and discuss things visually, helping my work.
