About The Artwork

This work comes varnished and ready to hang in a black wood float frame. Born in Coventry in 1960 I have been painting all my life - graduating from London's Hornsey College of Art in the early eighties training under John Yeadon and John Loker. My work from then and up into the nineties followed a route through the influences of the American Abstract Expressionists and the British colourists Hodgkin and Hoyland. I began to develop a style of abstraction through work with the human figure and still life compositions and sold well. These recent groups of paintings explore my responses to landscape and are also developments of some earlier still lifes from​ early 2000. Using a considerable amount of preliminary drawing my paintings become the final physical response to what I see. I feel painting is a way of taking my experience and giving it back to the observer in an a way that is both exciting and perceptive. Although I have sold many pieces over the years; .After years of studying and drawing around the coast lines I have developed a freedom which is needed when visualising the sea. This is one of a series developed from countless observations starting in the late 1980's. Trying to capture some element of such a vast experience on a small scale demands great discipline in a painter. I have developed this image into a further series trying to reduce the scale further without losing the dynamism.

Born in Coventry in 1960 I attended The Lanchester School of Art then onto London's Hornsey College of Art graduating in the early eighties training under the John Yeadon and John Loker. My work from then and up into the nineties followed a route through the influences of the American Abstract Expressionists and the British colourists Hodgkin and Hoyland. I began to develop a style of abstraction through work with the human figure and still life compositions and sold well.

Using a considerable amount of preliminary drawing my paintings become the final physical response to what I see. I feel painting is a way of taking my experience and giving it back to the observer in an a way that is both exciting and perceptive. Although I have sold many pieces over the years the success of 2017's body of work has forced me to succumbed to decades of constant pressure from fellow artists and for the first time I have began to seriously market my work some of which dates back over 30 years..
