Biography

II was born in 1956 and I began painting in oils when I was twelve years old. When I was seventeen I attended a two-year Foundation Course and I have a Ba (Hons) degree in Fine Art and I also have a City and Guilds Teaching Certificate. I have taught in schools and I've also given private tuition. I teach basic drawing skills, especially from life, and painting and drawing technique as these are things that can be taught.

I've had various exhibitions over the past forty five years and I've also been in a number of group shows however my detailed record of these events has been misplaced so the CV presented below is not a full account of my activities.
