Artist Statement

I’m a retired architect, self-taught watercolourist - and still learning!

Occasionally, as in the past, I am commissioned to produce ‘artist’s impressions’ of building projects for architects or developers, but nowadays I concentrate largely on my own artwork, principally in pure watercolour, sometimes in pen, ink or colour wash.

As an ex architect, I am naturally interested in painting buildings and their settings, although the majority of my output tends to be landscapes, marinescapes - even mudscapes! I am inspired by whatever grabs me at the time - quite often it’s a particularly striking view or atmospheric light effect observed on a countryside or harbourside walk, sometimes a subject of a quirky nature!

In addition to original works, I also produce high quality giclée prints of selected paintings.
