It will come as no surprise that painting and drawing has been my life-long interest and passion. Being entirely self-taught I have had to learn by experimentation, but after decades of practice I have evolved a flexible and personal style that can be adapted to a wide variety of situations. Having initially worked in watercolour and oils, my focus changed when I was given an expensive boxed set of 72 pastels. Initially daunted by such a gift I took my first tentative steps into the medium and was immediately hooked.
