About me

Best known for my sweeping interpretations of landscapes and clouds, I also paint flowers and birds. The common thread is evoking a sense of calm.

My work is about capturing moments. It could be a beach that I know well, or the view from my daily country walk. Images may be based on a fleeting memory or a place that is visited over and over, each time seeing something different.

I aim to capture the essence of the place and the feeling that makes its special, maybe the sweep of the shore or curve of a field.

My still life and bird paintings are about simple everyday memories; wild flowers picked on my morning walk, simply placed in a jam jar, or a bird visiting my bird table. This often overlooked beauty is given focus so that it can be enjoyed again and again.

I have exhibited work at the Royal College of Art, The Royal Society of Marine Artists and Glyndebourne opera house in East Sussex. In 2017 I undertook a large commission for the WWF on the subject of climate change which was exhibited at the Houses of Parliament. In 2023 I won the Artist’s Open Studios prize for Berkshire.

My work is regularly exhibited at art fairs in London and New York, including the Affordable Art Fair and the London Art Fair.
