About

“My love of art initially started many years ago with drawing wildlife. With this passion came an attention to detail with graphite pencil, completely self-taught. A career change due to injury and illness forced me to step out of my comfort zone and start painting full-time from my studio in the market town of Retford. This is where my love of landscape painting flourished and continues to progress, as I develop new techniques with oil and acrylic. The highlight of my artistic career so far was being involved with Sky Arts Landscape of the Year 2026 at Keswick as a wildcard.”

I paint landscapes and wildlife inspired by the changing beauty of the natural world.

My paintings explore light, atmosphere, weather and the quiet moments that give a landscape its character. Working from observation, sketches, photographs and personal experience, I aim to capture not simply how a place looks, but how it feels.

From dramatic skies and open countryside to intimate wildlife studies, my work is about finding those moments of connection between light, land and life.

Evocative landscapes. Poetic realism. The quiet beauty of the natural world.

“Painting is my way of listening. Every horizon, every shadow, every shift of light carries a story. My work is an attempt to capture those quiet conversations between nature and the creative spirit.”
