I graduated from Cheltenham with a BA (Hons)1st class in 1978. I studied Art education at Margaret St, Birmingham and gained a P.G.C.E. in 1979. I have taught in Sheffield schools for over 28 years.
There is now more time to practise my art. The local Peak District landscape offers wonderful opportunities to capture the scale and grandeur of nature. Other subjects that I return to include the vast open skies & seascapes of British and foreign coasts. More recently I have linked imagery in both photography and mixed media work with the words of John Milton’s “Paradise Lost”. The set of seven paintings ” New Horizons” has been exhibited at various venues in Sheffield. In 2013/14 sparked by seeing the Hockney RA show, I spent some time using an iPad to draw on.
My output continues to oscillate between photography, computer art and painting, between figurative and abstract and between digital and actual. This doesn’t mean I am lost or without focus, just on the move.
