About me

The Effects of atmosphere, temperature and light are my special interest, - particularly back-lit subjects using rich colour and interesting reflected light in the shadows to make the picture sing.

To many people, pure watercolour is the most beautiful and expressive of painting media - translucent, infinitely subtle, luminous… perfect for capturing the fleeting qualities of atmosphere, temperature and light.
