I do not specialize in any particular subject and will paint anything that takes my fancy. Though I painted in oils many years ago, my medium now is mainly watercolour and occasional pen and ink.

I was born 1941 in Arnold, Nottinghamshire, UK and have been keen on art from a very young age. I passed a scholarship at the age of 12 years to go to the Nottingham Technical School of Art. This gave me the opportunity to be taught some of the finer skills and techniques that would have been required should I have chosen to enter the art profession. At the age of 15 years I decided not to make it my career and instead entered the engineering profession. I studied electronics and became a design engineer with a local company. My work took me to many places around the world and although it was very demanding it was also very rewarding. In September 2000 I retired early due to ill health. It was the ideal time for me to take up my passion again and so joined the Arnold Art Society the same year.

Commissions

I undertake commissions quite regularly, with most subjects considered. An email is suggested to establish subject matter, size, price, deadlines etc.

Prints

High resolution prints are available and reproduced on heavy acid free art card, with border to assist in framing.

A mail order service is available, with unframed prints dispatched in large diameter tubing.
