Profile
I live in Gateshead in the far north of England, and have a background in science (physiology and medical research). But now I’m too unwell to work.
I began painting watercolours less than 2 years ago, to distract me from painful health problems.
I only have one surviving eye, which is failing. So making the most of my late start!
I find the challenge of painting, raises my spirit above the physical.
The notorious unpredictability of watercolour painting, means you never know if you are going to succeed with a painting, when you begin it!!
I am also an amateur photographer, with a love of landscape and photoart. You can see these, on my page at photopoints
- *Update – June 2008
Not a sale yet…..I must try hard to get better at painting.
But buggame! – aren’t skies hard to get right in watercolour?
I aspire to a very small scroll-bar!!
