I Enjoy Painting Seascapes, Landscapes & Still Life

Examples of works

I'm a classically trained artist with five decades of experience working within the art industry.

For the last twenty years I have focused on designing and teaching courses in both classical drawing and oil painting techniques from my art school as used by artists from the renaissance period.

I know focus on creating paintings from the comfort of my art studio and on location around the UK, Europe, Canada and America.

I also enjoy sharing my knowledge by making tutorial video courses on drawing and oil painting techniques for my online art school and free online art community.
