Local Artist

BIO

Based in South-west London, I graduated with a Fine arts Degree from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne.  I have been drawing on and off for a number of years and I have recently focused on pencil drawings of cats, often my own pets.

I undertook quite a bit of observational drawing at school, life drawing at the 6th form college (and started art history which is still very important to me to this day).  I was community artist (at Spilsby Lincolnshire for Lincolnshire and Humberside arts). I went into teaching Design and Technology in London and ended up as a Head of Department.  I am now looking to work part time to give more time to drawing and music.

My feline drawings concentrate on ensuring that the subjects have “cattitude”.
I like to draw in coloured pencil no bigger than A5.  I have got quite interested in Islamic art having seen a few recent exhibitions. 

Although my work does not reflect this style I am very interested in what could be achieved on a small scale.

I have exhibited recently:  The Hague in 2007 and Tallinn Winter Exhibition 2008
