My area of artistic practice is painting, underpinned by close observational drawing.
The history and associations inherent in ordinary objects and materials are an important element in my work, with everyday items from the domestic environment being a particular source of inspiration. I am interested in the arrangement, combination and repetition of such familiar items within my contemporary still life paintings.

In 2012 I will be continuing my series of small paintings

“100 Small Things” featuring some of the many items I have collected over the years and
“100 Small Scenes” featuring the landscape on and around the waterways near my home and further afield.

I will be working on these small paintings alongside my larger work and I will post images on my Blog and Face Book page as they are completed
