About the Artist

I have painted all my life, but my background is not artistic. I studied first in the hard sciences, later in engineering. My day job is technical, but unrelated to my qualifications and to my artistic practice. I have some formal art education.

A single painting can take a couple of years from first thoughts to finished article, though most ideas don't make it all the way. My sketch books contain far more writing than drawing.

I live and work in Sheffield, England.
