"For as long as I can remember I've always loved drawing and painting and have been fortunate enough to have had a long and
enjoyable career as an artist; I especially enjoy painting the landscape. Now living and working back in the North East I am surrounded
by beautiful countryside and coastline which is a never ending source of inspiration for me. My paintings depict a sense of the landscape
expressing my interest in colour interactions and contrasting shapes. I work into a painting using acrylic and oil paints in an impasto style, 
building up layers of colour and making bold marks on the canvas. I love using the texture of the paints to capture the drama of the
changing skies or landscape, painting in an abstract style but still retaining the reality of the subject".
