Born in 1952 in Barton-upon-Humber. I spent much of my childhood growing up in Scarborough before moving to York in 1972.
I am married with three children and have always been interested in art.
I am a self taught artist and enjoy experimenting with colour, texture and different styles.
Inspiration for my work comes from a wide variety of everyday sources and events.
I have a great sensitivity towards people and surroundings and this is reflected in my paintings.
Below is a list of places that I have exhibited in:
Galleries and Exhibitions:
Bar Lane Studios, York
Artestee, York
The Mulberry Bush, York
The Courtyard Gallery, Malton
Prime Arts, Bath
Sewerby Park, Bridlington
York Open Art Exhibitions
I have also undertaken many private commissions for customers both in England and abroad.
In addition to my paintings I have recently introduced a range of unique household accessosries, jewellery and gift lines which are both practical, decorative and fun to have.
Each item has been individually handcrafted by myself in my studio in Yorkshire.
Many of these are already proving very popular and I am busy extending the range and developing new ideas.
One of my more recent ventures is a new website:
which provides customers with a delightful, easy, safe and hassle free shopping experience.
My Lily May is an ideal way to shop. The website features not only my unique designs and products but an interesting range of unique and desirable gifts which are perfect for both the home or to give as presents.
