Im originally from England, now I live in Kildare, Ireland with my wife and daughter. I have been in Ireland since 2000, great country.
I now work as a professional artist by facilitating art groups and I am illustrating a book and working towards a solo exhibition.
I love all visual art specifically oil paintings and I am inspired by past masters in the hope I can achieve an equal skill level. My main concern is using colour, I love the vibrancy of oil paint but I often experiment with different styles and mediums. I try to express my feelings and emotions in my work, more so now than I have in previous work and I learn something new with every painting I complete.
