Bio
Started to study architecture ( during which time a had a number of exhibitions of paintings) but moved into arts administration. Set up and ran Battersea Arts Centre, Assistant Director of Greater London Arts ( 9 years) and then 30+ years as an arts development consultant specialising in arts buildings - new build and restoration/upgrade from the programme and management aspects. - eg Hackney Empire, Mick Jagger Centre, Dartford, and Chequer Mead Theatre and Arts Centre, East Grinstead.
Having now retired I have returned to painting and have recently had work at D-Contemporary and in shows presented by ArtCan.
I am chair of trustees of ArtCan and Streatham Space Project
Artist Statement
My work is based on images mainly collected on my travels around the world. They reflect the natural world and it's fragile state. These images are the starting point but the finished works become more abstract and colours are modified, often reflecting the mode of the subject, rather than reality. Colour and texture are key features
Most works are gouache on paper and small scale ( max 50x40)
Please wait, it may take sometime ...
1-Always Use "Landscape" mode Layout in print settings.
2-Use default margins.
