I was born at the" Queen's Hospital, Wolverhampton of the UK in 1955 and currently live in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire of the UK.

I undertook the main part of my education at the Newcastle Art College and Nicholson Institute, Leek, Staffordshire Moorlands of the UK

I enjoy using poster paint. Colours achieved are full bodied and bring vibrancy to my work.

My subject preference is mostly anything found at the tides edge. Towns to wave washed debris found at the tidal line.

A New York gallery probably best described my work: "Seascapes are favourite, the colour is bold, brash and not at all bashful, the way we would all like to remember what we once witnessed and exaggerated. Yet, the compositions are soft and very soothing. These opposing elements create a visually compelling body of work. Your passion and skill for the medium and the sea shine through beautifully".

If you have seen my work in the flesh, then maybe you have spent too much time looking at cut squares of paper with print that rubs off and hanging in gloomy places from string with only flies for an audience!

Permit me to gloat if you have been a victim of my work. I suppose in retaliation, you would like to see myself locked up in a very small room with an un-muzzled Anthony Hopkins.
