Capturing the elusive property of light and its transformative property is everything. I work initially en Plein air and make numerous visits to the places that draw me to paint and sketch. These places are normally a bit odd, villages that don't quite cut it on the traditional beauty front and over time become more derelict but they may become eery, interesting or human. 

So what do I want with my art? To show the beauty in the banal and what is around us. What inhabits those woods in the way of past lives lived? Where does that unpaved road lead?

I am both a woodblock printmaker and a painter in oils.

I was born and raised in South Africa and developed a passion for the outdoors that has influenced my interest in landscape painting.

I have had anvaried art career working for many years as a film animator in Germany and London as well as being an illustrator for a range of publications. I was a regular artist for the Times Newspaper.

Recently I completed the Newlyn Art School Professional Landscape course.

Since 2022 I have exhibited my paintings and prints at the Slade Gallery in Gillingham, The Art Stable in Child Okeford, The Old Chapel in Abbotsbury, The Guggleton Art Gallery in Stalbridge, Tremenheere Gallery in Penzance
