I was born near Port Isaac, North Cornwall. After a life teaching and raising a family in Liskeard, in 1993 the opportunity arose to renew my interest in painting, particularly watercolours and more recently oils. My paintings reflect my interest in the history, legend and mystique of Cornwall and the Cornish way of life and the local area. I am a member of the Made in Cornwall scheme.

Over 25 of my painting have been reproduced as greetings cards, on sale throughout East and North Cornwall
