The Gulf of Finland, Saint Petersburg, Russia. Painting

I went to an Art college in northern Nottinghamshire and then achieved a degree at the now known Cambridge School of Art. Whereupon I received a valuable education in painting from a Camberwell painter there. I have travelled widely throughout the world. From volunteering in the 'third world', Iceland, The United States and Russia and Europe. I have studied Art within different cultures of the countries I have experienced, past and present. Different philosophies applied to the practice of painting and how our experiences as human beings reflect in our work particularly. I have always felt a strong connection with the landscape genre in painting. I apply my life experiences and knowledge of how a variety of cultures interpret the landscape in painting into my own work. Ranging from Chinese painting to Italian frescoes. My paintings are in private collections within The United States, United Kingdom and Russia.
