About

I grew up near Washington DC, the capital of America. When I was 11 years old, I had art lessons at the Corcoran institute.

At 18 I moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Santa Fe is in the Wild West situated at 7000 feet in the Sangre de Cristo mountains. The artist Georgia O'Keefe painted in this high desert where the light is very like that in Provence in the South of France.
Santa Fe has 250 art galleries. I got to know them well over the decade I lived there. My degree in art and art history comes from the University of New Mexico, in Albuquerque.

I moved with my wife and son to Sandwich in 1989. My mother-in-law gave me a studio in her mediaeval walled garden. I began painting the flowers she grows there, particularly the irises which come up every spring.

I now live in the centre of town in a beautiful 1603 building called Noah's Ark. My paintings look good on the ancient walls. I have regular exhibitions here and a gallery.
