About me

I am a portrait artist based in Oxfordshire. I work in oils in a bold figurative style with fluid brush work and strong use of colour and tone. I always show attention to detail and pride myself that I can get a likeness of anyone who sits for me.I am equally happy capturing the intimate atmosphere of a cafe or the fleeting changes of a busy town scene. I paint what I encounter.

I have put on several one man shows and am a member of Oxford Art Society where I also regularly exhibit.

I am a highly experienced art teacher with over twenty five years experience and have a BA Hons in Professional Studies in Education. I currently work for Abingdon and Witney College and was voted “Teacher of the Year 2020″ in Oxfordshire Adult Learning Faculty of the college. I teach courses in oils; acrylics; watercolours; landscapes and life drawing. I also do outreach teaching in the community, working in hospitals and with people who are recovering from drug addiction.

Much of the work on display is for sale. Prices on request.
