I’ve spent a little time getting back into observational painting: just so that I don’t lose the knack! I’ve been doing some small water colour sketches around the village where my studio is; so I’ll post them on here. Contact me for info on any […]

Landscape 2019
I’m really pleased to have finished this 150 x 100 cm landscape. Acrylic and mixed media on canvas. Someone asked me, ‘How will you know when it’s finished’ and I guess the answer is always, ‘I don’t know, it just is’. Contact me for price […]

Summer 2018: New Beginings
I’m embarking on a new set of landscapes that focus on the hidden, and the multi-layered nature of our physical environment. Recently, I watched a BBC program about Australian Aboriginal artists and their ancient (c.70,000-year-old) culture. It made me quite envious of their artistic connection […]
Open Studio, July 2018
The Pewsey Vale is a very special place and it has played an important part in almost all of my life. My family has a deep connection to this place: every lane, copse, field and hill elicits a memory, a story, or an emotion. Maybe its […]
Cannings Cross, June 2018 ***SOLD***
Another scorching hot day today. Lovely to be out and up on the downs near home. This and other recent works will be available to view during the Marlborough Open Studios weekends in July. JM
