Details
How would you describe the work you do and why?
I love exploring the natural world and painting things I see. Landscapes and small creatures and birds are my favourite subjects. Also, being interested in the deterioration of wildlife habitats , I hope that occasionally my art reflects the need to cherish the natural environments for preservation of diverse species. eg the Water Vole. It is also a wonderful therapeutic way of whiling away dark and gloomy indoors weather!
