Born in 1968, I spent my early life in Leeds, Yorkshire. It was during these early formative years that a love of painting and drawing was first instilled. To a large extent I am self taught and have painted and drawn seriously since the early 1990's.

Exhibitions showing my work have been held in Leeds, London, Ilkley, Newcastle and many of my works are held in private collections in the United States, Australia and parts of Europe.

My work can be divided into three main categories - landscapes, still lifes and portraits. Mediums used include pencil, pen and oils. I have over 150 pieces covering a variety of locations and themes.
