I started life as a graphic artist in a West End studio after leaving art school, but very soon tired of the 9 to 5 routine. In fact I left Art behind except for a brief interlude of 4 years painting buildings of all descriptions (mostly using ink and wash) on a commission basis and have only recently returned to Art in a more dedicated way.
Watercolors have been a tremendous challenge as my preferred medium was usually oils and pastels.

I am a whimsical artist who literally paints whatever takes my fancy – no set journey, it could be landscapes. seascapes, people, portraits or buildings. I am happy to discuss commissions.
And I have a renewed interest in life-studies thanks to all the online zoom sessions during Lockdown and Self Isolation.
One thing that is consistent is my need for a certain amount of accuracy, having been trained back in the days of draughtsmanship
