I have been painting and drawing for over 35 years. I have done this in eight countries. Hillary Clinton has one of my Afghanistan portraits of a woman, where I lived for three and a half years. I have two books published for the British Museum, Shakespeare & Friends which features portraits of major British writers which I did at Hay on Wye Literary Festival and the Oxford Literary Festival. The other book Afghanistan Portraits is a collection of charcoal portraits drawn across the country, many in remote villages many miles from Kabul. I was Artist in Residence at 10 Downing St from 2006-2007 while Tony Blair was Prime Minister.
