Profile

Im a 40 something big kid who likes Art in all its guises, and have been painting Watercolours for 26 years. I have sold at numerous galleries & exhibitions and work in all mediums but predominently watercolours. I love my music & play saxaphone & flute and listen to all forms of music from jazz to rock and blues to classical. I am into sports especially fishing, football, rugby & going to the gym.I have compassion for mankind and look forward to the day when we all live in harmony as we are all brothers & sisters ! I have reverted back to living a fairly simple life and my greatest pleasures lie in the great outdoors and apreciating the world around us, my door is always open to people and i would help anyone in need, I willingly give advice on Art techniques , composition & mixing colours and for free ! I am at present collaborating with a fellow artist Photographer( Mikebov) as i have done renditions of some of his photos . Please check out MIKEBOVS work ! 2010 is looking to be an exciting year as i am looking to go full time as an Artist with galleries ,Exhibitions,travel, Art courses & also setting up a gallery/ combined walk in studio ! lots stilll to sought out and very busy,Also involved in a local charity called Sink one for Sussex where they wish to sink a naval vessel to form an artificial reef ,At present in the throws of designing Artwork for this project and things like posters Tee shirts etc.

My Artwork is based on what i hold dear to me and the love of the enviroment & countryside,my work is constantly evolving partly through watching others and by constant encouragement and trying to obtain the texture & feel factor.I will experiment with any type of Subject & medium but my first love is Watercolour & of late have been producing a series of Seascapes of which is a long way from being exhausted. I love Atmosphere ,luminosity, texture & at times pure suggestion all in the same picture ,sometimes creating extreme dynamics which really move me, all ways looking and experimenting with different techniques & colour combinations of which 90 % of my painting/ sketching time is taken up with this.
