I was born in Cleethorpes England, and
I emigrated to Perth West Australia in May 1982 with
my family.
I quickly settled down and set about to build
the family home in the ‘Bush’ on the outskirts
of Perth, after a number of years working in the building
industry, feeling not satisfied with what I was doing,
(I had drawn all of my life mainly sketching and normal
anything that was in front of me, normally my hand and
on anything), this led me to pursue this further and
upon entering the Fremantle school of arts one day I
decided to see if there was any drawing courses available,
that’s were I met Larry Mitchell (www.larrymitchellart.com) I signed up
For ‘Drawing 101’ from then on my life changed.
Where I live in the “bush” on the outskirts
of Perth, Western Australia. Is a self-imposed isolation,
which allows me to be on the fringe of the “art
world” with just enough distance to keep my head
clear and to concentrate on my art with very little
distractions.
I work in a variety of genres, which works for me;
it allows me to constantly change and mentally flex
and to allow new thought processes to occur. |
