I trained in London as a Graphic Designer and Ilustrator, subsequently qualifying for membership of  The Chartered Society of Designers.

My long and successful career took me around Europe and to America, designing for many High Street names and other prestigious companies.
Gaining valuable experience in viewpoints on art and design I also picked up a number of awards along the way, some of which can be seen here.

Now retired and living on the South Coast of England I can finally do what I have always wanted to do, that is to paint.

I delight in painting in detail. I paint in oils on canvas or board using glazing techniques similar to those used by the 17th century Dutch artists, a technique that enables me to produce an exciting depth of colour; particularly noticeable in my paintings of fruit. These fruits are shown in an everyday situation ... paintings of today.
