I have always painted, although mainly self-taught,
I went to evening classes in Cambridge before I emigrated
to Australia in 1980. I returned in 1984, moved to
Lincoln a year later and became a member of an Art
Society, which held exhibitions, where I have submitted
my work and also on some occasions have won awards
for my work.
I work in oils and pastels but started to develop
my use of Acrylic and found the texture ideal for
experimenting as I like to work with different subjects
so I can capture the atmosphere with light and shade
in my work. One way I like to work is using small
pieces of cut up mount card used as a palette knife
experimenting with different methods and techniques.
