Who am l?
I am a professional artist,
originally from the United
Kingdom but now living and
working in the USA. I paint
primarily in oils though I also
work in acrylics, graphite and
pen and ink.
Mood and emotion feature
strongly in all my work, for in
this my voice and spirit speak
together. Art is beauty, love,
yearning, and hope, but it is
also about the darker
aspects of our shared
human experience. In my
work I endeavor to capture
both the light and the dark,
the rough and the smooth.
For in life nothing is black or
white, just shades of gray.
Thank you for taking time to
view my site. I wish you a
pleasurable and thought-
provoking stay.

I love to see rivers at sunset, when the light illuminates the water, and the
fiery oranges of the retreating sun casts restful rays on the landscape,
deepening and thickening the vista with the dark and muted blues and greens
of the shadows.
"Light thickens, and the crow makes wing to the rooky wood." (Macbeth)
A favourite line from Shakespeare that truly sums up this time of day.
