I am a visual artist and would much rather show my work than talk about it. My art represents my response to my environment and experiences. I am fascinated by, time, form, space, colour, movement, rhythm and texture. I hope to elicit a response from viewers which is a balance between intellectual and emotional engagement. For me, it is achieving that balance point that defines a work of art.
My style of painting varies in accordance to my response to any subject.

I have been based in North East Scotland for over thirty years. There is never a day that I am not stunned by the visual complexity of my surroundings and challenged to find a way to interpret what I experience into a two dimensional form.

During the sixties I attended art school, but on leaving college I pretty soon realised I'd have to take paid employment to survive. To be honest this resulted in decades of varied and often interesting work. Although I always maintained a strong interest in art and managed to occasionally produce work, I found it impossible to develop my creative practice and maintain a job at the same time. I am now free from employment and relieved to be able focus on the serious stuff.
