My paintings often start with vivid dreams. Sometimes this tells me that I am at a turning point in my life. I wake up with an image in my mind that stays with me until I have painted it, however long that might take. I also like to experiment and learn new things. I do not have a favourite theme. Instead my pictures tend to reflect my emotions at the time I was creating them.
As well as painting I also write, and sometimes I paint when I want to think things through. Some of my paintings are about the difficulties I have experienced with writing. I find oil painting in particular a very restful and absorbing activity that settles my mind when it is skitting all over the place.
I exhibit most years at exhibitions of the Cambridge Drawing Society, of which I am a member, and occasionally at other local venues.
