Hi,

I was born in Liverpool, UK, where I eventually ‘grew-up’, studied Architecture, learned loads of other things and watched Everton FC. I now live in Christchurch, NZ with my wife; Carol and my young daughters; Hannah (11) and Rhian (9). Not quite living the dream yet, but hopefully my kids will.

My passion has always been for Art and Photography and I’ve been sketching, painting and taking photos for as long as I can remember.

I was delighted to stumble across Red Bubble which is the perfect outlet for my snaps and scribbles, thoughts and ideas. Great to find like-minded people and a brilliant source of inspiration for me.

Hope you enjoy viewing (and hopefully buying) my efforts as much as I enjoy yours.

SUNSETS
‘Forming and breaking in the sky, I fancy all shapes are there; Temple, mountain, monument, spire; Ships rigged out with sails of fire, And blown by the evening air.’
J.K. Hoyt – A Summer Sunset

SKYSCAPES
“Far clouds of feathery gold, shaded with deepest purple, gleam like islands on a dark blue sea.”
Shelley – Clouds

LANDSCAPES
“Landscape photography is the supreme test of the photographer – and often the supreme disappointment.”
Ansel Adams – Photographer 1902-1984
