About
Semi-abstract still-life artist inspired by my life and home along the North Norfolk coast.
Admitted to Kingston School of Art & Design in the late 60s, my Influences include the French impressionists and later artists such as: Paul Cezanne, Georges Braque, Giorgio Morandi and Christopher Wood.
Over the years, I have taken a multi-disciplined approach to my art having practiced: collage, constructive sculptural work, enhanced photo-based artwork, as well as traditional painting on canvas and board. I exhibited internationally, including galleries in New York (Klompching), London (Truman) and Rome (Spazio Tetenal).
In the past several years, I have concentrated on still-life painting - compositions often embracing a subtly distorted or "flattened" perspective, enhancing the visual harmony of the elements.
The main theme of my work is old wooden working boats, which I have long been attracted to. I love their shapes and lines and in particular, what they represent to our coastal life and communities over thousands of years. I also paint traditional still life subjects.
It is always great to hear from galleries, collectors and existing or potential buyers. Please don't hesitate to contact me.
