I am a self taught contemporary artist, working from my home studio in West Cornwall.  I paint mostly in acrylics using various techniques to apply the paint to canvas and am always experimenting with new methods.  I like to paint freely and usually in a fairly loose style mainly using palette knife techniques with  alot of 'spreading and scratching', to create depth of colour and unusual effects. 

I find the amazing open space and dramatic scenery that is the coastline of West Cornwall inspirational.   The associated coastal way of life influences much of my work with a fascination for boats and ships which are often battered and rusty from years of hard work on the open sea.

Please email me if you wish to be advised of new work and future exhibition dates.
