I was born in 1958 in Crowthorne, Berkshire. And currently live in Broadstairs, Kent, as have done for the last 37 years.

I began employment as an apprentice painter and decorator which continued for 25 years, including marbling and specialist paint effects. I became a college lecturer from 2000 to present day at Thanet college and then Mid Kent college teaching my trade area.I have been working from 'The Little Art Gallery' in Broadstairs for over the last 14 years and still currently work from there.

I am also a keen photographer and have travelled extensively.

Mainly l paint in oil although I use a variety of other mediums such as acrylic, water colour and ink. I really like painting using palette knives, it gives my work, I feel, another dimension.

 My inspiration comes from various avenues, such as light, reflection, memory, life experiences and observations as well as my photographic work. Seascapes are a natural theme for me as I live by the sea, however African art is a love of mine from my many travels to Africa, mainly South Africa.
