Biography
I'm a professional artist based in the south east of England. I love bold, striking images and vibrant colour. I find endless inspiration in nature, people, architecture and geometry. I have an art studio at home and I love to sit in the peace and quiet and paint, where my soul can be still. I agree with Marc Chagall that "art must be an expression of love or it is nothing". My aim is to produce positive and inspirational paintings for people to enjoy.
I work in oils and my paintings are produced on canvas. All paintings on canvas board are provided in a complimentary handmade wooden frame, ready to hang. Paintings on traditional and deep edge canvas are sold unframed but are fitted with picture wire, ready to hang.
The next exhibitions of my work will be as follows:
"Summer Exhibition" at The Halpern Gallery, 272 High Street, Chatham, Kent ME4 4BP from 4 – 31 August 2022. Open Mon-Sat 10.00 am - 4.00 pm.
Under The Rainbow Exhibition at Bluewater, Greenhithe, Kent DA9 9ST from 8 August - 12 September 2022. Open Mon-Sat 11.00 am - 8.00 pm; Sun 11.00 am - 5.00 pm.
Thank you for your interest in my work. Please feel free to contact me with any questions and I’ll be happy to help.
