My background is in cartography and technical illustration, both requiring a level of draughtsmanship with an attention
to detail and a need to convey visual information accurately.
This has influenced the way that I approach my work.
My commissions range from portraiture to Trompe L'Oeil
murals where the fun of deceiving the eye creates the illusion
of reality.
My present work is my interpretation of the beautiful Sussex
landscape with its gently swelling curves and undulating form. Love of light and pattern had led me into using gold leaf
to help convey the warmth and
ethereal quality of the majestic skies and rolling chalk
lands of the South Downs.
