Oils and watercolour are my main mediums. The way oil paint or watercolour is applied and reacts is so different, so exciting, each having its own qualities and advantages. I love to travel and record those memories in sketches and photographs. The subjects I choose to paint are a result of those travels. You’ll often find me painting on location, which gives the artwork a spontaneous vitality difficult to recreate later in the studio. I am inspired by light and the way it changes the landscape. Paintings give back so much more than a photograph ever could.
My studio paintings are created from my sketches or photographs, never from someone else’s. I had to be there, be involved, and recall memories of the places I visit and people I meet. I love creating art for the pleasure it shares. I enjoy teaching art and, as well as local classes I run, travel all over the UK in a motorhome doing demonstrations and workshops for art groups. I have made so many new friends that way.
