Working from my studio at home and my painting studio just outside the village of Stonegrave, North Yorkshire, I am a painter, occasional print and artists' book maker. Drawing is important to my practice.
August is nearly over. The fight against fracking in North Yorkshire is gearing up. Most of my time is spent working for the cause. Meanwhile I am making some artists' books and I have two large paintings on the go, that will complete my quartet. My solo show in York will open on October 15th. More later.
I recently had the pleasure of working with photographer Lucy Saggers to produce some shots of me in my studio. It was a surprisingly enjoyable experience; Lucy made the process quite natural and stress free. I will be using the shots for any publicity that I might need for future exhibitions and publicity. The ones here are some of my favourites.
