I studied Zoology at Sheffield University and then moved into research at Cambridge for a couple of years. The training made me very aware of my surroundings and I love to analyse every detail of nature. 

Later, I learned about colour, design and art history through my experience as an art and antiques dealer and during that time I began painting and drawing. Now in Cornwall I have a large studio which gives me the opportunity to experiment but I do love painting the sea. 

When preparing for a painting I work outside, sketching and drawing speedily so that my response to the surroundings is immediate. ​

Where to find my work:
I am fortunate enough to have a studio gallery here in Tregonebris  where everyone is welcome.. All of the work on this website is available for sale unless otherwise stated. Please contact me for more details.

​Other work can be viewed in two local hotels/restaurants The Old Coastguard in Mousehole and The Gurnards Head near Zennor.
