Wirral based Artist. Recently spent 6 months in hospital after multiple myeloma broke my neck and left me with incomplete tetraplegia. I'm currently in remission and learning to find new ways to create art.

The Liverpool skyline from New Brighton on the Wirral using oil pastels. We moved from Liverpool to the Wirral 37 years ago, a move I never thought I'd do.

My first oil painting, 1979.
My Aunty was fixing up a run-down cottages in Cotterdale, near Hawes in the Yorkshire Dale's. For 2 weeks every year, we'd leave our council estate, Halewood, for a holiday in a place with no gas/electricity. We loved it.

My friends have a mirror in their garden, which I thought would make a nice composition.
Oil pastel on canvas, with pencils and felt tip pens.

Before I collapsed I used to take my boy Luigi for walks along the prom. A fence panel had been destroyed during a storm. The fence protects a small park from the ravages of the Irish Sea.
This oil pastel on canvas is called 'Nosey Luigi' as he peers through the gap.

I collected driftwood from Hoylake/Meols beach over the years. On this piece I painted Leasowe Lighthouse, which is the oldest brick Lighthouse in Britain. I the mounted it on canvas and completed the surround.

This time last year I was bed bound in hospital struggling with a broken neck &spinal cord injury due to myeloma. I couldn't walk or use my hands/fingers. As movement slowly began to return I started to try art. This was one of my first attempts while I was still bedbound, using water colour pencils

When Liverpool play bad they play horribly bad as they did in the 1st half today. Diaz and Bradley coming on made a difference but not much else to shout about.

The 2 games against this top side have shown Liverpools limitations. Need some quality additions in the Summer. PSG will take some stopping in the Champions League.
