About My Art


When I am painting, I like to use a variety of implements and tools including knives, cardboard, rags, housepainters brushes, and, occasionally, my fingers. I really enjoy the process of painting and the serendipity of wet on wet techniques. Though I may start with a fairly accurate representational drawing, I soon digress. It's rather like stepping off a known path in to an unknown space... This is the place where you bring together the known and the imagined, memory and invention, and where Painting becomes Art. For me, painting is an expression of personality and identity - moving paint around a canvas is this expression. The subject is something to hang a painting on. The painting itself determines when it is finished.

My photography, on the other hand, expresses another side of my character entirely and I have a particular image in mind when as I set up (mainly) studio shots. My interest in portraiture informs every shot, including horses and swans.

If you would like to visit my studio at any time during the Summer you will be most welcome. I can be found 7 miles North of Cardigan on the main A487 road at Tanygroes. The studio is called Tŷ Twt.

At my studio you can see my paintings, drawings, photographs, handmade books & artist's prints.

All sizes given are nominal. I have tried to be accurate with descriptions and canvas sizes, but fitting in frame could vary slightly. I generally use 1 " pine frame, or no frame at all.
