About

I would usually exhibit in Wandsworth Artists Open House each year, but due to Covid 19 Wandsworth Open House has been cancelled since 2020. We all hope it will return next year in 2023.

I will be selling some small items at the Sprout Christmas Market at the Sprout Art Gallery 74 Moyser Road Furzedown SW16 6SQ from December 3rd to 23rd 2022. I will have Cards, Mugs, Coasters, Jigsaws, Notebooks and Prints, all featuring my work. 

 

I live and paint in Tooting, South London.

I have been exhibiting for many years and my work is in private collections worldwide.

Some of my largest work is hanging in St Georges Hospital, Tooting (originally Commissioned by the Bolingbroke Hospital Wandsworth).

I work in my garden studio 

I run Art Classes for Adults and Children usually based in the Furzedown Project but temporarily in St Alban's Church Hall, Pretoria Road SW16

On BBCTV , My paintings feature in all CBBC series of 'The Secret Life of Boys' enhancing the walls of the farmhouse where the featured family live.

I studied painting at Farnham College of Art and ten years later took an MA at Chelsea College of Art, London.

My work encompasses paintings both oils on canvas and gouaches on paper,  as well as some painted furniture and some small painted wooden screens.

I sometimes make Linocut and Woodcut prints.

I also make Mosaics ( I am working on some mosaic tables at the moment).

Some paintings will be of individual figures, some of groups of figures and others are composed of more traditional landscapes.

Colour is a perrenial theme in my work, I enjoy playing with the juxtaposition of certain colours, the patterns I create with colour, and the emotional response we have to each colour and hue. I like to incorporate elements of fabrics and costumes both from around the world and from history.

Having grown up in the Wiltshire countryside, natural forms are also a recurring motif.

In tandem with my interest in colour and pattern, people fascinate me and I endeavour to convey a story by using looks and glances between members of a group.

I am as happy painting portraits from life as I am creating figures from my imagination.

Meanwhile the landscapes show another side of my work where light and weather provide the subtleties of feeling within a painting.

Biography

I live and paint in Tooting, South London.

I have been exhibiting for many years and my work is in private collections worldwide.

Some of my largest work is hanging in St Georges Hospital, Tooting (originally commissioned by the Bolingbroke Hospital Wandsworth).

I run Art Classes for Adults and Children at the Furzedown Project (a local centre for older people) where I also volunteer at the Friday Morning Art Group.

On BBC TV my paintings feature in all CBBC series of 'The Secret Life of Boys' enhancing the walls of the farmhouse where the featured family live.

On Acorn TV's 'The Chelsea Detective' my paintings can be seen on the houseboat of the eponymous hero Max Arnold.

Introduction

I studied painting at Farnham College of Art and ten years later took an MA at Chelsea College of Art, London.

My work encompasses paintings both oils on canvas and gouaches on paper,  as well as some painted furniture some small painted wooden screens.

Some paintings will be of individual figures, some of groups of figures and others are composed of more traditional landscapes.

Colour is a perrenial theme in my work, I enjoy playing with the juxtaposition of certain colours, the patterns I create with colour, and the emotional response we have to each colour and hue. I like to incorporate elements of fabrics and costumes both from around the world and from history.

Having grown up in the Wiltshire countryside, natural forms are also a recurring motif.

In tandem with my interest in colour and pattern, people fascinate me and I endeavour to convey a story by using looks and glances between members of a group.

I am as happy painting portraits from life as I am creating figures from my imagination.

Meanwhile the landscapes show another side of my work where light and weather provide the subtleties of feeling within a painting.
