I have been painting and drawing all my life in a traditional way, and am mainly self taught by studying Victorian paintings which I especially admire.

I work in both oil and watercolour, and my subjects are mainly British landscapes, villages and the Lake District. Also estuaries, river scenes and marine subjects.

I am a member of many art clubs and societies, and have had work in many galleries and exhibitions including the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and the Royal Society of Marine Artists.

I have been a member of The Croydon Art Society for some thirty years.
