My life in art

My teaching career was spent teaching Art and Design at Ancaster High School and Lincoln College of FE . My greatest pleasure was seeing A level students move on to study Art in Higher Education and to hear of their successes from time to time. Since retiring a couple of years ago I have been able to devote far more time to my own work. My inspiration is usually the natural world: the hills of my native Lancashire, the big skies and arable fields of Lincolnshire and exciting new experiences travelling abroad.

My work has been exhibited in the Usher Gallery, Carre Gallery, Sam Scorer Gallery and Lincoln Cathedral.
With solo exhibitions at Sam Scorer and Carre Galleries.I am a member of the Lincolnshire Artists.
