I began my working life as a professional cellist having studied at Trinity College of Music,
London; joining the BBC Concert Orchestra in 1980. During this period I developed an
interest in painting, particularly with watercolour. I left the BBC in 1991 to study at
Camden School of Art and subsequently Chelsea College of Art and Design. Since then I
have divided my time painting and working as a free-lance cellist.
In 2006, I moved to Rye in order to concentrate on painting, gathering material for my work locally.
Architectural subjects are a source of inspiration for my work; my watercolours reflect a particular fascination with the resonant effects created by light and space in an architectural context - the bold, vivid use of colour complementing and liberating the restricting lines of a structure, producing a strong sense of drama and atmosphere.
I am happy to take commissions for paintings and illustrations. If you would like to discuss having a unique watercolour painted for you please email me or call me on
