Hello and welcome

I have been exploring and creating for over 30 years but more recently have been focusing on my passion for painting with elements of mixed media.

My work at the moment is inspired by time spent in other countries and by my adventures, experiences and the treasures I have collected along the way.  Balinese masks, Indian batiks, Sumatran wedding saris - you name it!

Like the best adventures, my paintings start with no real destination in mind.   I begin by exploring with colour and mark making, building up layers which often have exciting and unexpected results. Over time, characters emerge, and take on a life of their own.
