I was born and educated in Wanganui, New Zealand and am presently resident in
Boscombe East, Dorset, United Kingdom.

Whilst working in education in Poole over the past ten years, I have spent time observing, photographing and painting the lovely scenes of this region and the extensive South coast of England.

This has developed into a special love for the unique Dorset coast, the beaches, the Purbeck Hills, Old Harry Rocks, Durdle Door and Corfe Castle.

I love working with OILS but also really enjoy ACRYLICS and especially MIXED MEDIA; many types of house paints, sand, fillers, spray paints, sawdust and much more have ended up on  my canvases.
