During the frustrating periods when the weather is too poor to go outside to paint, I sometimes turn to still life. My latest batch of work is a series of larger than life conker paintings. The humble Horse Chestnut holds many a memory for me in its warm, reflective surface. Redolent of school days, they are lumped in with drizzle, bonfires and the cordite tang of sparklers in my mind's Autumnal references. As children we collected and treated them to a variety of experimental processes to try and produce a champion conker. They would be baked and pickled, polished and beaten to try to gain an advantage over other boys' efforts. When sufficiently hardened, they would be drilled and threaded onto an old bootlace and made ready to be swung with as much force as possible at an opponent's dangling prize. My knuckles still throb at the memory of the ones that missed and hit my hand instead.

I am a figurative and portrait artist working in a variety of media. My nudes are drawn in soluble graphite on handmade paper, painted over with watercolour, this blends the line work and underpins the colour. I also paint in oils on stretched canvas or board. I am been taking online portrait commissions, both nude and traditional. I have also recently discovered a love for landscape au plain air that has surprised me immensely. My recent work has also included still lives of magnified Horse Chestnuts. I am an Associate Member of the Royal Cambrian Academy of Art.
