Full time artist living and work in Westbury, Wiltshire.

Originally born in Birmingham but moved to Somerset in my early years to go to school at Shapwick & Edington School which is situated on the delighful Somerset levels. Early on this inspired me to follow my passion in art.

Trained picture framer but now concentrating on my artwork i am inspired by colour, light and teture. I am also a trained illustrator and this is picked up in my work as I create a story telling aspect which my followers enjoy.

I am greatly inspired by the works of N.C and Andrew Wyeth as well as Anthony Green R.A. I work in acrylics on canvas and board and sometimes using textured gels.
