Background

Having spent a lifetime working in IT / Computing both in industry and academia as a developer, consultant and latterly as a trainer/ lecturer; during lockdown I picked up a hobby again from my 20's.

This hobby was painting in acrylics. I tried to use the paints, brushes and easel I had owned for more than 30 years, but soon bought new paints, brushes and a stronger and steadier easel and have not looked back since.

I have now left my former profession and focus purely on my art work. I have exhibited in local art galleries and at numerous art fairs.

My painting of the Pierhead Building in Cardiff Bay is currently featured in the Norwegian Church Arts Centre, as part of the 'People's Story of Cardiff Bay' exhibition (see https://www.norwegianchurchcardiff.com/whats-on/), until the 31st of March 2025.

I specialise in both Contemporary Landscape paintings and Automotive/Car Portraits.

I paint the landscape, the sunsets and the colours of where I live and where I love to be. I particularly enjoy expressing the joy of the images I paint in bright and often vivid colours.

If you would like a particular scene painted, get in touch and I will work with you to create your ideal, unique, work of art!

I also love to paint Automotive/Car Portraits as I am a confirmed car buff and enthusiast. I tend to paint either cars from the 70's and 80s or Jaguars, MGs and classic British cars from any era. This is mainly as these are my personal favourite cars.

I am happy to create a unique painting of your own car for you - just see my Commissions Page for further details.
