Biography

I am an artist based in Oban on the west coast of Scotland. I work mainly in watercolour, pastels and charcoal. My favourite subjects include portraiture, figure drawing, animals, birds and the landscape of Scotland. During 2020 I wrote, illustrated and self published two children’s books in a series called “Tales from Number 22”, they are stories based on my grandchildren’s visits to Oban. This year I have embarked on a series of drawings of Argyll wildlife focusing on birds, and animals.
