My influences are the bees that sting me, the midges that bite me and the birds that sing so sweetly.
I was born in 1962. With a stick and a pair of wellies I fought many battles in the hayfields and moors of Northern England.
I grew up somewhat whilst being educated at St Martins School of Art in London, after which I was lucky enough to work for many of my favourite publishers, doing art work for Penguin Books, the Radio Times, Homes and Gardens and various BBC publications.
I moved to New York and lived in very small apartments, producing work for the New York Times, Time Magazine and Travel and Leisure. While in America I became interested in leather work and started producing products for the fashion designer Paul Smith on 5th avenue. A fantastic way to meet models.
Life moved on and so did I. Several months spent in an Indian factory designing embroidered soft furnishings. What a beautiful and horrible place.
For many years now I have been living back in the lovely Durham dales where I pursue my love for nature in contemporary art, occasionally I dust off my wellies and sharpen my stick.
