"I have lived in Gloucestershire for nearly all of my life and have always felt a close connection to our woodlands and rolling hills and vales. Living in Alderton, and walking with my dog up our beautiful hill, has inspired this love of the countryside to emerge in my paintings."
"I have exhibited all around Gloucestershire and have run children's mural workshops at local festivals. I am an active member of the Artdepot, a group of artists striving to open an Arts Centre in Tewkesbury. I am also part of a co-operative of artists managing and exhibiting at The Happy Gallery, Bishops Cleeve."
"Besides landscapes, I also paint pet portraits, flowers, murals and abstract work. Commissions are welcomed!"
