Hi,
I am a UK artist, trained at Birmingham Institute
of Art and Design, graduating with an MA in
textile design in 1974.
I
was a freelance textile designer with my own
shop for many years and then an Art Teacher
at King Edwards V1 Grammar School for 10 years.
I loved teaching Art but never seemed to have
the time to continue my own work. I had found
the same happened when I was Head of Textiles
and a visiting lecturer to the University
of Central England. I never seemed to be able
to fit my own work in.
Fortunately
I have now left teaching to travel, be with
family and concentrate on my artwork full
time. We travel around in our VW camper, visiting
galleries and I paint.
I
have had a few exhibitions but are not very
keen on the whole net-working thing involved
in that. I prefer to just paint. Maybe I will
get round to exhibiting when we 'settle down'.
I like selling on Ebay sometimes as its nice
to be in direct contact with people who buy
my work. I often paint minatures to sell on
Ebay.
I
enjoy using different media and experimenting
with different styles. This web site is intended
as a reference for myself and for anyone that
wins one of my paintings.
