I am a self taught artist who specialises in depicting the landscape in quick expressive oils and charcoals. I work outside or in my studio and make my own frames.
I like my paintings to be evocative of weather, seasons, of the feeling and poetry of the countryside. They are explorations in colour, texture and pattern. They usually start from a small idea in the form of a sketch or a memory of a certain place but then tend to take on a life of their own that I am directing rather than fully controlling.
They are always a mixture of hard work and fun to create, and hopefully bring joy when put on the wall.
