ALL ABOUT A VIEW TO PAINT

Even from my earliest days I’ve adored the landscape in which I lived. The Peak District was part of my every day life as a child and I’d spend much of my time visiting with my family it’s many dramatic landscapes which always evoked a mass of emotions which I was lucky enough to express through painting. Through family holidays I began visiting Scotland whose dramatic mountains, lochs and seascapes stole my heart.

​

After studying for 4 years I gained a BA(Hons) Fine art degree at Coventry School of Art where I painted and used printmaking to explore my love of landscape and my primary focus was the Highlands and islands of Scotland.

​

After graduation I lived in Leicestershire for a few years before moving to Scotland in 2004. I was lucky to have retreat at Kippford in Dumfries and Galloway and was inspired to return to my art by the coastal views and amazing skies.

​

Ever since I’ve been painting the most inspirational views that for me evoke a range of emotions and capture the beauty of the landscape we live within.
