I have been painting for many years and have developed a love for watercolour as my favoured medium, I may return to oils in the future and from time to time produce an oil to remind myself of the difference,  it's a learning process and I hope that will continue to the end.

​I paint from sketches of current boats, my memories of being a fisherman at sea and from historcal records, I have many books and there is much available online these days with public libraries and records.  I try to be as accurate and true as possible, always remembering to enjoy the creative processes involved in producing a piece of artwork.  I hope my pictures enrich the lives of those who live with them.

​I take commissions and am always open to negotiation.
