I am a qualified graphic designer who basically likes to design, draw, paint and photograph!
My passions in life are in music, art, films, sport, books and my groovy family which includes Teddy the black labrador without whom, no long walk would be possible.
I design within four genres – abstract, culture, nature and sport.
Art? It’s not a big deal. A big deal is knowing the person you love, loves you. It’s making sure that you can give your kids the time of day. A big deal is realising that life is not about topping up your pension, it’s about giving someone a smile. I’ve seen the future and it’s tomorrow but don’t use up today thinking about it.

Art is an emotion, a passion, it makes its mark on the scheme of things. It’s inspiring to be in a gallery and witness a canvas touched by Monet, Picasso, Braque, Malevich, Chagall and of course e.t.cetera. It offers more than the dietary concerns of people you’ve seen in a scene on a screen.

But, ultimately, it’s no big deal. It’s eye candy. Don’t go looking for too many meanings, ‘cos why aint they there on the canvas?
