I am a painter who writes in between pictures. I write poetry (occasionally) and short stories and am currently working on a novel for my own amusement.
I live in the Welsh mountains here in the UK. I’m surounded by nature. Foxes and badgers have made our garden their sanctuary and at night the air is thick with the beating wings of the great barn owls roosting in the old Hawthorn trees next to our cottages.
However, painting is really what I live for and is how I define and express myself. My work is in private collections in France, Canada, America, Turkey, Tunisia, Kuwait and the UK.
I look forward to reconnecting with old friends and perhaps making new ones on Red Bubble.

You needed a bone / But kept picking on a friend

Necessity is the smother of intention.
Hillary Dilatory Doll; / The mouse drove up the mall. / New York was thrilled; / The mouse got killed. / Hillary Dilatory Doll.
The aforementioned Sylvia Plath / Wrote all her best stuff in the bath. / Her life was so sad / ’Cause she married a cad / But at least her first name wasn’t Cath. /
The sea is still. Ivan is sitting on the sand, / Waiting for the whale to arrive from the violet ocean. / He sighs like a cat with one life left.
