I studied painting at The Slade School of Fine Art under Euan Uglow and Paul Richards. Working mainly from observation in Oil on Canvas.
Still-life became the primary subject matter. However, a love of Byzantine Icons has lead me to undertake an M.A at The Prince’s School of Traditional Arts, to investigate the the early traditions and techniques of painting.
I now incorporate Egg Tempera and work on Gesso Panels whilst trying to combine some of the ancient traditions with the William Coldstream System of measurement and proportion.
