I am a painter based in York, originally from Newcastle upon Tyne. My creative journey began in the 1970s, studying Art and Design at York College of Art.
Over time, my professional life shifted toward management, and art was pushed to the margins—limited mostly to doodles during meetings. But in the stillness of the COVID lockdowns, I returned to painting with renewed purpose. What started as small oil studies has since grown into a vibrant practice in both oils and watercolours.
My work balances abstraction with realism, and my paintings often explore that space. Through commissions, exhibitions, and workshops—including sales to collectors, as far away as Miami—I’ve developed a personal visual language rooted in spontaneity and structure. I now lead watercolour workshops and continue to evolve as an artist—still learning, still experimenting, and always painting.
