Welcome to my site! I love drawing and painting and I have decided to display some of my art work on the net for you all to see.
Art is not my profession but it is one of my passions and I would dearly love to get involved in book illustrating, so if there's any authors or publishers out there who think I could do the business, then please e-mail me.
My speciality, I suppose is line drawing in ink, but I use other mediums for drawing too, pencil, coloured pencil and charcoal as examples. Painting wise, I just love the fluid transluscence of watercolour.
The picture on the left of the Lily Pond was painted in watercolour way back in 1992. Check out my galleries where you can see more of my work, both earlier and later than this piece.
Browse and enjoy.
The object of this site isn't to sell my pictures, it's to promote my artwork in the hope that it might be deemed good enough for me to go on to illustrate a book or two. However, if you wish to consider purchasing any pieces on this site, please e-mail me and we can discuss it further.
I am really treating this site as a portfolio of my work, giving an idea of the sort of stuff I produce. I will be updating this site regularly as I produce more work and get myself organised with a decent scanner!
Thanx for visiting. Come back again soon.
