I am not a formally trained artist and I am sure I break many rules. Painting gives me great pleasure and if it gives other people pleasure looking at it, then I have achieved my goal.

I walk around Arnside and the South Lakes almost everyday and am inspired by the colours and shapes that I see. My work is sometimes representational or semi abstract drawn from real scenes.
