I paint because I have to. I am happy to sell a painting if someone wishes to buy it. I sell paintings because I have limited storage space and I need to continue painting.

I only sell hand painted original artwork. I do not sell prints, t-shirts, mugs or any other reproductions of the artwork. If you purchase a painting, you will not find a copy of your original artwork anywhere else.

The painting will arrive with a wire attached to the frame ready for hanging. It is strongly recommended that the painting is hung from one or two pan head screws (supplied with the painting) firmly attached to the wall with the use of a suitable wall-plug. Paintings on boards should be hung from two pan head screws. Please do not use nailed-in hooks.

Each painting is signed on the back along with the title and date. In doing this the signature does not dictate in which orientation the painting will hang. Many are versatile and can hang vertically or horizontally. (My preferred orientation is indicated with an upward pointing arrow on the back of the frame).

Acrylic paint on gallery wrapped canvases are the primary materials. Some of the paintings are mixed media; they may also include texture medium and glazes. The Offcuts series uses timber left over from my own carpentry work: Acrylic on birch plywood boards. All paintings have two coats of clear varnish as a protective finish coat.

Yes. Please send a photograph of a wall in your home or office together with some dimensions in centimetres such as the width of a sofa or space between two points on a wall. You will receive an image of the chosen painting(s) hanging in that space free of charge. You may choose up to four paintings.

Yes, I am happy to create commission pieces. Please let me know the size you would like, the style, colour preferences, which paintings on this site appeal to you, and, equally importantly, which do not. I will contact you to arrange a time to discuss the commission in more detail.

I spend time looking at the finished work. This prompts thinking about existing ideas and concepts, often from the natural sciences and the environment,. That in turn prompts a title. I spend time thinking how I can represent this as a single a word that encapsulates the meaning it has for me. This limitation also allows the viewer to consider the work and what the title, that single word, means to them, which will be different to my thinking.

A title can be changed. I enjoy hearing people's reactions to a painting, and what they see, what it suggest to them. A viewer’s interpretation often leads to a new title that is often better than the original, and I am happy to change it to that.
