I’m best known for my landscape and seascape paintings, which capture the shifting quality of natural light and the emotions it stirs. Reflection, rich colour and atmosphere sit at the heart of my work.
The sea is my greatest inspiration. I’m drawn to the contrasts of the shoreline: a wave breaking against rugged rocks, then the calm rhythm of water rolling onto a sandy beach. For me, painting is the ultimate escape, a way of turning long, immersive observation of nature into a visual sanctuary.
I’m proud of my Staffordshire roots and paint from my studio in Newcastle-under-Lyme. My work has been exhibited across the UK, and in 2019 I was honoured to win The People’s Choice Award at The Brampton Museum and Art Gallery Open Exhibition. I’m also Vice President of The Society of Staffordshire Artists, where I help support our local creative community.
