The Waterly Bottom Mummers Painting

I am a countryman, a craftsman, a communicator. I consider myself fortunate to be able to sit in front of a subject and record it in paint, it has taken a lifetime to put together the skills in order to do so but I still find the act of painting thrilling. Subjects as diverse as landscape, still-life and interiors are all conveyed through a mastery of observed colour and a lifelong fascination with the representation of space and light. I am the third generation of my family to live in this beautiful part of the south Cotswolds in rural England but I have also been lucky enough to travel extensively in Europe and to Saudi Arabia and the Caribbean to paint. I paint almost exclusively in oils.
