Painter of land and sea (and sometimes figures) in oil. Based in Cambridge UK. Seeing how I get on here, in the hope of leaving Meta platforms in due course.

Not my usual fare, but now and again I love to indulge in a little traditional landscape painting!

I'll be in London soon for the Dulwich Festival Artists' Open House.
We're open the weekend of the 10th and 11th of May, with a mix of paintings, ceramics and textile art.

Hoping to connect with artists, makers and those who appreciate such things. I paint in oil, mostly abstracted land and sea, although I'm a dab hand at getting a person's likeness, but this isn't what pays the bills.
I'm based in Cambridge, UK and am in recovery from a whole other working life.

Something new! Still on the easel and barely hatched. #contemporarypainting

At some point I'll post something new, but for now, another from the archive.

From the archive: I can't remember precisely when I painted this, but it was the first time I really felt happy with the direction of my work. It sold quickly, and to someone who loved it ❤️

This was probably the visitors' favourite at last Summer's exhibition. It is fundamentally oil on canvas, but with a tempera underpainting, and natural grasses incorporated into the top layers. 100cm X 100cm.

This sea painting is finally finished and ready for framing. Hooray! Part of 'Wild North East' series.
