ABOUT THE ARTWORK
During lockdown I have painted several still lives of flowers. Tulips, because of their large sculptural shapes and the extraordinary shapes the stems form, are a joy to paint. The main problem with flower painting is the large amount of space around the flowers. But if this is sufficiently interesting it can create an intriguing composition. Here some of the flowers are against the white table cloth, others are against the dark background, so the farthest away has the strongest tonal contrast.

When I graduated from the Royal College of Art I was painting large abstract paintings. However I was always fascinated in the potential of paint to create illusions, particularly the illusion of space and depth, so I started painting figuratively again. But coming from a background of abstraction, the paintings had to also be a balancing act between form and colour. Besides my own work I have also worked as a paintings conservator and taught art in adult classes as well as summer schools. Commissions have included two large oils for Nottingham Council for their new Council Chamber. In 2006 I was artist in residence at Garsington Opera. My work is in the collections of Lindblad Travel, Paris Blues, Nottingham Council and Hammersmith Hospital. Bridgeman Images holds forty one images of my work.
