Welcome

I am a UK fine artist, freelance illustrator and web designer. I paint in an Impressionist-influenced technique in oils on canvas. My fine art gallery includes examples of my landscape and still life paintings, many of which are available to buy. I also accept commissions. I have produced illustration work for book covers, advertising, packaging, greeting cards and more for clients including Card Connection, Hallmark Cards, Carlton Cards, NatWest Bank, Williams Sonoma, Robert Hale, Random House and Wirral Council. My portrait art gallery includes examples of portrait paintings and drawings. I accept commissions for portraits of family and friends from photographs.

New Blog: 'Drawing Upon Life'

February 2013: I have just set up a WordPress blog onto which I intend/hope to add paintings and drawings from life on a regular basis. Please follow the link to visit the blog: drawinguponlife.wordpress.com.

New Paintings

At the time of writing (October 2012), it's been around a year since I last added any new work to the website. I've finally found time to add some new pieces, and they are now available to view in my fine art section. There are around 15-20 new pieces, including landscape and still life paintings and a couple of portraits.
