…… Always on Christmas night there was music. An uncle played the fiddle, a cousin sang "Cherry Ripe," and another uncle sang "Drake's Drum." It was very warm in the little house. Auntie Hannah, who had got on to the parsnip wine, sang a song about Bleeding Hearts and Death, and then another in which she said her heart was like a Bird's Nest; and then everybody laughed again; and then I went to bed. Looking through my bedroom window, out into the moonlight and the unending smoke-coloured snow, I could see the lights in the windows of all the other houses on our hill and hear the music rising from them up the long, steady falling night. I turned the gas down, I got into bed. I said some words to the close and holy darkness, and then I slept.

A lifelong amateur artist and art collector, now retired, I now have more time for painting. Following in the footsteps of my artist mother who went to Camberwell School of Art and grandfather who moved to Paris to paint, I have built up quite a large portfolio some of which I have picked out to show patrons of the Saatchi Gallery.
