I was born in 1956 in Chester a beautiful ancient city in the north of England. Raised in N.E.Wales I have drawn & painted since childhood.
                                      I studied fine art & art history in the 1970's at art schools in Wales & England.  Since finishing my formal education I have made my way in the world as a professional painter.
                                                                                                                        My work is abstract although my images are directly influenced & informed by the natural , man - made world and music. Indeed music of all kinds is reflected quite overtly in all I create. 
                                I work mainly in acrylics, pen & ink & mixed media.
                                                                                                                "May the long time sun shine upon you" and thank you for taking the time  to peruse my work.
