Biography
I've been painting people's faces since I could hold a
paintbrush. I encountered my first patron when I was
about 17 years old. He was a local disco DJ (this was
around 1970/71) and commissioned portraits of rock
and pop stars painted with fluorescent poster paint.
I discovered oils around the same time and since then
it has always been my preferred medium.
In 2006 I joined the Hesketh Hubbard Art Society and in 2009 became the Honorary
Secretary. The Society is open to anyone with a passion for drawing and holds an
annual exhibition at the Mall Galleries (just off Trafalgar Square).
In December 2009 I became a member of the United Society of Artists'. In January 2011
I was appointed as the Honorary Secretary. Their next exhibition will be at the Menier
Gallery (near London Bridge) in April 2012.
