Biography:
Born in Newbury, Berkshire I spent almost all my early life in Essex and Kent, most of my childhood being spent on livestock farms.
In 1986 I completed a degree in English Studies at Sunderland University which developed my lifelong love of Shakespeare.
I have lived in Kent since 1990 and prior to that lived in London and Cambridge.
My style is largely expressionist and I am interested in the Fauves, German Expressionists and early Renaissance painters. In my work at present I am exploring a series of paintings based on the absurd and surreal, which followed a visit to Prater Park in Vienna in the Winter of 2004, an experience which was both sinister and comic. I am also interested in landscape, animal and equestrian painting, and the difficulty of avoiding cliché when painting these genres.
