About the Artist

Pastel Artist,inspired by Iona, plein air painter of seascapes and Marine art. Self taught,I discovered the ability to paint in Pastel while on a visit to the Hebridean Island of Iona, during the summer of 1997.
My personal relationship with Iona is inspired by the ethereal beauty and luminosity in the landscape. Iona is the primary focus of my art. However I also painted for Wyfold Riding for the disabled annual calendar for 11 years featuring scenes along the Thames river, leading to Henley Royal Regatta pastel art.
