I paint all subjects in any medium and teach classes in watercolour. I am interested in capturing atmosphere, imagination and the play of light and shadow.
I have painted all my life – as long as I can remember. I was trained at Sheffield College of Art and Sheffield College of Education (Now all part of Hallam University) Upon graduating I taught art for 30 years in various schools in Sheffield and Derbyshire and then took early retirement to become a full time professional artist and art tutor.
I don’t like to get into a rut with my painting – I like to keep trying something new both in subject matter, style and materials. I believe that an artist should never stop learning and developing. I paint mainly in watercolour or oil and my genre of choice is realism with imagination and atmosphere.
STUDIO: My studio is a purpose built extension to the house. I also use it for my painting lessons and as a permanent gallery of some of my work.
