I’ve been dabbling with painting for a few years now, on a very intermittent basis.

My first ever painting was completed in 1995, using Resene test pots, on a self stretched canvas I bought from a camping store. It still hands in pride of place in our lounge, and hasn’t faded a jot.

I did a few paintings for friends…all gratefully received, and still being hung, as opposed to quietly taken down and hidden in the garden shed.

At the end of 2006 I resurrected my talent and broke out the easel…starting out with an image of a wood pigeon…some sandshoes….and a still life of a day bed from a holiday house we frequent up north.

All pieces are for sale, except where noted. And, yes, I’ll take commissions as long as I think I’ll be able to do you a good job.
