I’ve been a professional artist for 15 years, first exhibiting at the Mulberry Tree Gallery in Swanage, Dorset, in 2009. My paintings are drawn from life, mainly in the UK and most frequently along the banks of the River Thames in Surrey and on the hills, fields, cliffs and beaches of the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset
I enjoy painting people at work or play and have painted actors and players at Hampton Court Palace (one of which hangs in the Royal Real Tennis Club Members’ room ) and familiar faces in Purbeck. I’ve just completed a series of five paintings to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Swanage Life Boat Station . These are shown in the My Work section of this website. I’ve donated them, and their photographed Fine Art images, to the Swanage RNLI to use, display and reproduce as is useful and so please contact the Station if you’d like to see them framed and “in the flesh” or even purchase an original or a copy.
Much of my work (originals, prints and cards) can be viewed and purchased throughout the year in the Mulberry Tree Gallery in Swanage, Dorset www.mulberrytreegallery.co.uk
I’m also pleased to accept commissions
You can also buy my paintings and prints by contacting me via this website
I opened my garden and studio again in 2025 and thank all of those who visited this side of Purbeck to drop by, have a cup of coffee or tea, and look at my work.
CURRENT PROJECTS
I am currently working on a series of portraits, continuing my work as “artist in residence” at the RNLI Swanage and completing a private commission
