I grew up beside the Humber in the old “East Riding” of Yorkshire, close to the sea and the Yorkshire Wolds. My background gave me a love of the outdoors, coastal and hill walking and photography of the landscape.
I loved painting all my life and recently retired I am now Chair of the Priory Art Society of Guisborough. I am exhibiting in the Artsbank in Saltburn by the Sea, and regularly at other local venues and am delighted when other people enjoy my work.
Durig the last 20 years I have sold many paintings of local subjects including land/seascapes, rural villages and farms, & animals.
I aim to make images bright and exciting with colour and texture, using oils or acrylics to achieve mainly realistic interpretations. My latest style is great fun as I now experiment with acrylic inks , collage and metallic leaf to create semi abstract images incorporating flowers, still life, and imaginary landscapes. I hope that a buyer of my work will get as much pleasure from the painting as I did painting the picture.
All my paintings come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
My favourite painters are Kandinsky, Chagalle, Klimt, Rodin, Van Gogh, Cezanne and other impressionists, Hockney, & Paula Rego I enjoy painting for others so will take commissions.
Thanks for looking at my paintings.
