My work is inspired by the North Northumberland coast, where I live. Many of my pictures feature fishing boats, harbours, castles and local villages.
The vibrancy of my work derives from colours, light and movement on bright, windy days. The strong images are enhanced by texture built from layers of thick acrylic paint applied as the paintings emerge from the original sketches.
I live at Dunstan, just up the hill from Craster, and can be contacted on 01665 576245
My work can be viewed at: Schoolhouse Gallery, Alnmouth; Belford Craft Gallery; Bakehouse Gallery, Alnwick; Village Art, Warkworth; Seafield Restaurant, Seahouses and at Craster Art Club’s twice yearly exhibitions at Craster Memorial Hall
