Biography

Painting is without question a huge and natural part of my life. I have devoted and nurtured many years and all of my adult life to this passion which gives me more pleasure now than ever before. I am self taught in the medium of watercolour, and developed my style and technique over these years through success and failure. As well as watercolour paintings, I have touched in recent years on illustration commissions, which when published have proven a big success. One project was illustrating a childrens book called " The day the digger ate our wall ". I felt honoured to be chosen to illustrate a book of this nature, to give something back and that the children will learn from it. I was also commissioned to illustrate a medical reference book for a Devon University, which was also a very interesting and challenging project. I have been working hard on new collections of work, with a view to exhibit again in the near future. I am also working hard toward holding various exhibitions not just within the UK but within Russia and other countries also. With the UK, Russia, and other countries my aim is to allow as many people as possible to see my art, from far and wide areas, and to enjoy watercolours as much as I enjoy painting them, and to allow a little glimpse of the joy that painting gives me.
