In my work I use water colours for clarity and transparency, and pastels for animal portraiture. When painting land and seascapes I enjoy using both acrylics and oils.
The way light strikes the clouds, an atmospheric scene, sheen on water all inspire me to paint. To capture these lucid effects I mainly use oil and water colour paints.

I exhibited this year at Stamford Contemporary Arts Gallery with Stella Poole. We are in a central Peterborough location, close to other PAOS venues, and will be offering light refreshments.
