You will find me in Deep Cove, which is in  North Vancouver. As I work in my home please call first to see my work, half an hours notice is about enough.

My paintings include influences from my time on an Alberta farm, most of my life spent in parts of in British Columbia, extended visits to Australia, New Zealand, England, Chile, Brazil, Spain, Germany, and my birthplace England.

I am gifted in creative pursuits particularly creative problem solving, effective dealing with people - constellations, where I gained my living ... and funded my art.

Born in England near to Highcliffe where I lived my first 18 years. Highcliffe is opposite the ‘Needles’, off the Isle of Wight, off the south coast of England. Highcliffe is mid way between Lymington and Bournemouth.

Schooled in England and Canada, which barely got in the way of my education. Art was included in my General Certificate of Education from Oxford.

Mentored as a painter by James Picard, an internationally successful artist and brilliant.
