Art, photography, and design have been at the heart of my life for over six decades. In 1965, I was thrilled to be admitted to Kingston School of Art & Design, although my time there was cut short when I accepted a management apprenticeship with an airline, leading to a 35-year career in aviation. My passion for the visual arts never waned.

I later became a documentary and editorial photographer, working mainly in Africa. In the 1990s however, I returned increasingly to painting; creating “geometric” artworks inspired by post-war American artists and in particular the Russian artist Kazimir Malevich. I attended art classes with William Barber in Normandy and at West Dean College in West Sussex.

After moving to North Norfolk in the early 2000s, I began to paint, in a modernist style, the structural forms of old wooden working boats, such as crab boats, seen along the coast near my home. Occasionally, I explore still-life composition in the "flattened perspective" manner of the post-impressionists.

I exhibit my boat and still life paintings mostly in Norfolk, including Norwich, and Suffolk. I major on creating geometric artworks which I now present in large sizes, as limited editions, on brushed aluminium - a substrate i'm in love with for its highly durable, lightweight, gallery quality finish.
