I'm a hobby artist, born in Manchester in 1954 and now living in St Helier, Jersey, C.I.

I've drawn and painted on and off my whole life.

I passed GCE O and A level Art at school and started the Foundation year at Loughborough College of Art and Design in 1972 but left after the first term. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

I draw (with graphite and coloured pencils, charcoal, ink pens) and paint (using acrylic and watercolour paints) from photos, news clips, and life.

I've taken part in many group exhibitions and had one solo exhibition.

I suppose the purpose of this website is to have something to show if sometimes people ask me "what sort of stuff do you do?". It's also fun to maintain and is part of the hobby.

... and many thanks to James Hilton for my portrait : )
