RECOGNITION

Professional artist, painter.
Born Lincolnshire, England, 1966.
Also arts educator, workshops and mural commissions in England and France.
Working and exhibiting since 1994 in the UK and in France since 2001, in Paris and Lorraine region. Through paint, etching, drawing and watercolours, expressing the 'synaesthetics' of place. Neither landscapes nor seascapes, I call the works simply 'scapes', an anagram of 'spaces'.
Widespread internet presence.
Has since 2005 exhibited in most european capitals - Paris, Berlin, Brussels, London - and sold work on all continents, to buyers in Switzerland, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Chicago among many others.
Inspired by Claude Monet for his successful 'Giverny Suite' and 'Rouen Cathedrals' series, and equally by JMW Turner for his art-travels along the Moselle and Sarre rivers.

Grimsby School of Art, 1984-1986. Bath School of Art & Design, 1991-1994.

Exhibited painting professionally since 1994 in England and in Europe since 2001.

Paintings in collections of Deutsche Bank, Icelandic Consulate in the UK, a piece in the American Library of Congress, Washington, the Tribunal Administratif in Strasbourg (F), and also the municipal 'mairies' of Lunéville, Dieulouard, Château-Salins and Morhange, as well as the Bishop's Palace in Metz, France.
Private collections throughout Europe, including the Balkans, Asia ( Hong Kong, Tokyo), Oceania ( Aus & NZ ) and the USA.

Exhibitions in the UK include in London the AAF (2010, 2009), FreshArt (1994) and Not the Turner Prize at Mall Galleries, London (2004). Important other UK shows include the Birmingham Arts Festival (1999), The Ropewalk, Barton (2005) , 20-21 Visual Arts Centre, Scunthorpe (2008), and currently at the Gate Gallery, NE Lincolnshire.
