A little bit about me


I am what is generally known as a new wave pop folk artist. Usually I work by sitting at a desk with my head in my hands staring at the wall for several weeks, before jumping up and doing a painting in a few minutes. After which I kiss it lovingly - though only when it's dry.

Although I'm now older than John Lennon was when he died, and DIno Zoff was when he collected a World Cup winner's medal, I like to think of myself as an emerging artist. I'm just emerging in slow motion.

Since I started exhibiting I've had one solo exhibition and appeared in several group shows in the UK and Ireland.
