Biography

After a career teaching Physics in Secondary Schools, I have thoroughly enjoyed having the time to explore painting more seriously. Living in the Lake District and with Morecambe Bay nearby, I have had plenty of material close at hand. I have been a keen amateur photographer for many years and particularly enjoy capturing landscapes with dramatic lighting, often taken at dusk in Autumn or Winter. Many of these images have formed the basis of my watercolour work. More recently, I have tried to explore the use of other media, particularly pastels and acrylics and have tried, largely unsuccessfully, to loosen my style.
