Biography
I am a figurative artist, living in Stoke-on-Trent in the UK. I am an Associate Member of the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists (MFPA). Most of my work is produced for them, largely designs for Christmas or greetings cards, calendars or for other products in their range. I have also recently illustrated the children's' book Danny's Dream for the MFPA.
I hold exhibitions, and give talks and demonstrations of my method of painting. These often take the form of workshops in local primary schools, which is a great way of increasing disability awareness, and also great fun! It’s always rewarding visiting adult groups too, as many who have bought MFPA cards and calendars over the years are glad to be able to see a mouth-painter at work for the first time.
In February 2006, I had a residency and exhibition at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent. During the residency, I drew and painted in several different areas of the Museum, culminating in a self-portrait, drawing in the Spitfire Gallery.
I am married with two daughters, who occasionally feature in my paintings. I was born in Crawley, West Sussex, but have lived and worked in Stoke since graduating from Staffordshire University in1993.
