The Second Coming
The painting developed into a mythical representation of a new beginning, because of the nature of the composition. I noticed a person standing far away in the distance from one of the photographs I had taken. The sheer scale of the rhododendron trees makes a powerful image, especially with an almost biblical sky. I used several layers of paint to create a dramatic effect. I wanted to draw the viewer into the landscape. Notice how the flower heads stand up in salute to the brilliant light drilling down from above.

Oil Paintings, Pen and Ink Drawings
I am a Fine Artist based near Hartley Wintney in Hampshire but I also spend a few months of the year in Marbella in Spain, where I paint on location.
I studied ‘visual communications’ and completed a foundation course in the late 1980’s - gaining a distinction at the Cardiff Institute of Art and Design. I then worked in London as an Art Director for a number of leading agencies, before deciding to concentrate on oil painting and pen and ink drawing. I have been classically trained and my style has been described as similar to that of the 'Impressionists'.
My paintings and drawings are for sale and can be viewed on this Hampshire Artists site and in the Gallery of my website. I am also available to undertake commissioned work.
I offer art lessons.
Art Lessons
I am in the process of setting up art classes in the evenings for the Fleet area of Hampshire in the UK, and also in Marbella in Spain. I will naturally be teaching adult students how to paint in oils, and will also be concentrating on developing their drawing techniques.
The objective of the courses will be to focus on individual requirements. Everybody has their own preferences regarding what they like to paint or draw. I will endeavour to improve a student’s skill level, so they become more confident and proficient.
I also will be organising groups to join me during some weekends drawing and painting landscapes on location.

I have always been intrigued by water and how the light distorts the colours reflecting from the surface. The pond in Hartley Wintney is full of wildlife, and is an ideal place to sit and contemplate. I wanted the scarecrow who stands there to appear alive, but not to the extent of frightening away the children! I was impressed as to how well preserved he was and well-dressed too.

Lily Pond at Brockley End
The pond at Brockley End sits at the front of the house where my brother lives with his wife. I have been admiring it now for several years. I have taken plenty of photographs, and made sketches in charcoal, pencil and pen and ink. The pond is continually changing in appearance, especially the water. It can look mediterranean-blue one minute and coal pit – black the next.

I love colour, and I remember feeling excited by looking at all the flowers in full bloom. Ramster Gardens is a magical location, and has an enormous range of trees and plants. I used a large combination of warm colours for the foreground and cool colours for the background, to give an impression of distance.
The end result is very close to the actual scene.
