About the artist

Soft pastels and oil painter

I paint in soft pastel and oil, taking nature primarily as a source of inspiration.

I have had a love of art for as long as I can remember. I retired from industry 4 years ago and through Art in June was encouraged to go to Cathy Bird's classes at Jessops. Through her encouragement, I now paint in my own studio a great deal, and teach others, which I love. My style is 'loose' and I love mark making. Soft pastels and oils suit me well and allow me to work fast so I can't get bored! If you would like to, you could paint along with me during Art in June. Just give me a call to let me know.
