Mawddach 2 Wales (Sleeping Giant) Painting

Drawn to wild, raw landscapes, particularly those of Snowdonia in North Wales, the mountains in Southern Spain and the Indian Himalayas, I find inspiration in the sometimes savage temperament of the weather which molds the landscape and enhances light and dark and colour. I've always felt drawn to places with a particular character, sometimes by their wildness, remoteness and inaccessibility, and sometimes by the impressions that man had made on landscape, like the terracing in Southern Spain and the stone built hill walls in Snowdonia.
