I feel what I paint and I paint what I see.
I paint because I love to paint; my greatest enjoyment is seeing others enjoy my work. If someone can see, even just for a moment, what I have seen my art has come through. I have had several commissioned portraits, animal portraits and landscapes. I am a member of ?The Oil Pastel Society?, ?Whitby Art Society? and a member of 'The Eskvale Painting Group'
By background is mainly military serving as a Royal Marines Commando for several years. During that Time I managed to develop an ability to look at and, most importantly, to see detail and both frontally and laterally. The importance in identifying and relating peripheral detail proved a very useful tool in reconnaissance and now in viewing a subject for interpretation on a canvas or paper.
