I draw my inspiration from the forces of nature, the rain, wind, air, mist, rock formations and atmospheric changes in the landsacape. I have always been fascinated by the dramatic and mystical elements within our natural world.

Contemporary Artist

Waterlogged Field, Series, No: 3

I am currently developing a series of watercolours inspired by waterlogged fields 2023/24 near to where I live in Leicestershire. The focus of attention is connected with the surrounding areas of flooded fields and the River Soar; concentrating on the movement, light and reflections on the water. Another ongoing series of paintings I am working on concern ‘Volcanic Eruptions’, and are inspired by the Grindavik volcano eruptions of 2023/24 in the area of Fagradalsfjall, Iceland.

Volcanic Eruption, Iceland Series No: 4

Working in the studio this week, I was exploring different concepts from images made in my sketchbook over last year. In particular my visit to West Ardnamurchan, the beautiful scenery and history which interested and inspired so much. I remember a walk through Sonachan wood, the trees were ancient and formed a pathway to the sea. The woodland "Coille Shonnachain" was my motivation to paint "Memories of Place" which is an ongoing series.

I am pleased to be paticipating in the Leicester Sketch Club's Annual Exhibition I hope to see you there.
