Art has always been important to me and I have explored painting in oils and watercolour, drawing in ink and pencil and more recently, linocut prints. Every artwork I produce has meaning, either of a place that holds special memories, a place and time in history that drives my imagination, or an experience that stays with me beyond the initial moment…..

All of the pieces are for sale. If you would like to know more or are interested in making a purchase, please contact us via the Contact us page. Please make sure you quote the code of the item you are interested in.
