My work has mostly been based in a modernist British landscape tradition, and much of it has been in response to the landscape of the Isle of Arran in the west of Scotland, which I have been visiting regularly for many years.

The work develops through drawing, and working in acrylic and oil,partly on site and partly in the studio in London. My aim in this work is to make images which represent the place as I experience it, while focussing on the relationships of paint, form, colour and mark. A successful painting works first as an internally consistent arrangement of paint, but I also want it to be recognisably a response to a specific location.

In recent years I have extended my work in relation to the urban environment.  based on my experience of the city, London, where I live. I am particularly interested in the ways that urban and rural environments challenge the drawer and painter differently.

Drawing and painting both rural and urban locations sometimes lead to prints in different print media.
