I studied painting and lithography at Belfast College

of Art - many moons ago!  In those days the Art School as it was known then was housed on the top floor of the ‘Tech’ or Belfast College of Technology.

I am inspired by natural forms, textures and colour and have a love of animals.

I also enjoy photography and it inspires much of what I do.

Nature is a never ending source of inspiration.  From looking at a glorious landscape to the glimpse of the smallest leaf - so many ideas come to mind. Textures of all sorts can be very inspiring and can add a sense of fun and interest to a piece of work.

Animals -  such as a glossy coated horse or a furry cat can be great subjects to draw or paint.

When working with animals photography is so helpful.  Unless an animal is fast asleep it is seldom still and to be able to study a photograph is a huge help.  Then there is a whole world waiting to be captured with the camera.....
