Currently residing and creating in the picturesque town of Glossop which is situated in a valley at the bottom of the A57 snake pass in England. 

My Mission

To help the world rediscover the beauty of Portraiture Art and make it accessible to everyone.

I want to champion the versatility of alternative media such as Charcoal which produces some absolutely amazing images.

Most of all I want to say I am an artist and this is my future.

Extraordinary Experiences

I found late in life that I could draw when I picked up a pencil to sketch a picture of my late father. 

I spent most of my life creating architectural lines and in time when the material that bonded them perished I replaced it. Eventually I swapped my trowel for a brush and stone for canvas.

Luckily I found people who believed in my abilities, who encouraged me and who helped me find my path. They gave the tools to try new techniques, explained the theories and opened my eyes to a glorious new world for which I am eternally grateful.

My Core Values

Having the confidence to believe I have a place and a purpose.

  • To be honest with myself so I have the freedom to create.
  • Not to be afraid to bare my soul.
  • To encourage others to see the beauty I see.
  • To take critism as a route to improvement.
