Art biography
I am a self taught artist and photographer who has been painting and drawing from an early age and taking photographs for over three decades. I work in a studio at home in Chalgrove which is a village just outside Oxford and work to commission in mixed media, acrylic and oils. I am a member of West Ox Arts and Oxford Art Society.
In 2019 I will exhibiting from home in June and will be photographing Oxford Festival of the Arts again. I will also be taking part in the call to artists to donate works of art in support of Broadway Arts Festival and students in June and July. I take monthly art classes at SOCA and summer workshops at New Brewery Arts in Cirencester. I will be running some photography workshops at SOCA in Lake Street, Oxford from May onwards with two other photographers. I will also be including a small still life for Artweeks at SOCA. In September I will be exhibiting with a group of artists in Dorchester-on-Thames under the theme of Henge 19 exploring the place of ancient sites in this area. In November I will be taking part in a charity card sale in aid of Sobell House hospice at the Jam Factory in Oxford. this year I am entering some competitions such as the Ruskin 200 Art Competition at the Natural History Museum Oxford.
