Drawings
All drawings are mostly inspired by Light, Dramatic contrasting and subtle tones, Visually is where my inspiration comes from. Most of the Drawings are Graphite, except a few charcoal drawings, all on A2 240-pound cold-pressed graphite paper.
Paintings
My theory about Paintings is paint what you see and convey what you feel from the view you are painting, using full colour. The Paint I use is professional oil paints with medium such as lanasole and turpentine, and canvas size and proprotions varies depending on the subject.

Woodturning
I was inspired many years ago to someday explore the craft of Woodturning. A few years ago, the opportunity arose for me to learn how to turn wood, where I have taken great pleasure in learning and honing my craft as a woodturner. Although most of the wood is processed and purchased through a supplier, I do source storm-damaged trees where I much prefer to process the wood, drying it out and getting it used to produce hand-crafted items.

Workshops
Currently, I don't have a workshop on the go, but I have one full-day session organised for late November for Kirkcaldy Art Club - Two 3-hour sessions on a Sunday where we shall explore, basic drawing, composition and tonal work. finishing with a 3 hour still life.
I am also doing a beginner's 10-week evening drawing class starting in late September. Dates to be confirmed. Location: East Wemyss
- For beginners or improvers culminating in the students' ability to complete any drawing by themselves.
