I came to painting out of an urgent need to create. Although I also enjoy clay modelling and photography and have some skill in computer art and manipulation, it is through paint  - oil and acrylic - that I find the most intensely satisfying way to respond to the strange and wonderful images from everyday life.

I am particularly fascinated by the play of light and colour in the urban landscape, in rain and snow and at night. It is in these areas, when the world is apparently unwelcoming or dark that I find the most to express through painting.

Having said that, I find it too constricting to say I only do serious work as I have great fun painting cats and dogs and traditional landscapes and so on.

Before exhibiting I placed and sold work in restaurants and small galleries.
