Statement

I was born in 1964 in a sleepy village called Water Orton and have lived locally to there most of my life. However, I have travelled extensively, living briefly in New Zealand, but now reside in Warwickshire. I attended art school in Nuneaton for three years, on leaving there I concentrated on pen and ink work, portraits and animals, then general commission work, such as contemporary paintings and posters.

It was a brief attempt to emigrate to New Zealand, where my work sold well through galleries in Christchurch, that I decided to embrace the world of contemporary abstract painting fully!...... I am a great believer in things happening for a reason...so took the negative events in my life around that time and turned them into something positive!!  I draw my inspiration from many things in life, and hope those that view my work may draw inspiration too.

I enjoy the free expression that painting contemporary abstract art brings..........it gives me a sense of freedom that more formal work does not. My inspiration derives from my experiences in life....an emotion, an event, maybe a word, a sentence,  a colour, a place,  a person or indeed several people.....

The majority of my work is acrylic on large canvases, some taking several weeks to complete;  with the focus being on strong colour, bold abstract form and lines. The intent is that individual painting’s are a focal point of any room or location, whilst complimenting its surroundings.

All corporate or private commission work is welcome.

I currently have 3 paintings on show at the Landmark Arts Centre and Gallery, Teddington, London
Until recently had work exhibiting in at the gallery of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists. Newcastle Gateshead Art Fair  -  2009
