A Potted History
I obtained a degree in illustration from Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge in 1994 and have since continued to live and work in Cambridge.
My work has been exhibited in galleries in Cambridge, Oxford, Norwich and the Garden Galleryin Southwold. I also work as a freelance illustrator and undertake private commissions, including, a commissions for schools in and around Cambridge and Suffolk.
My paintings, drawings and illustrations have largely draw their inspiration from books, short stories and poetry however more recently I have begun to explore more general themes.
I teach Art & Design, part time, at Cambridge Regional College, and am a visiting lecturer at Bedford College as well as teaching evening classes in Life drawing at Hills Road 6th form college. More recently I have undertaken an MA at Anglia Ruskin University in children's book illustration.
