I’ve always drawn and painted (I’m as proud of my Blue Peter Competition Winner badge, won at age 8 for an RNLI-themed painting, as I’ve been about anything subsequently!) and my working background has been in commercial art; for the past 10 years or so I’ve developed my practice as an artist alongside my work as an illustrator, visualiser and storyboard artist which I’ve been active in since the mid 1980s. Happily my work as a watercolour, exhibiting artist has now largely taken over from the commercial side of things but I loved being able to draw every day, creating illustration and visuals that also earned me an income. I’m excited to now continue exploring the figurative subjects & ideas that most interest me as an artist.

Please use the ‘Contact’ page for any enquiries about purchases or commissions, which I’m very happy to discuss.

I live near Canterbury in Kent.
