I trained at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art. The relationship between colour and tone, as well as curves and edges where two colours meet has been my main concern. I am interested in perception and how the brain processes visual information. My main influence has been Paul Cezanne for his way of seeing. I seem to have worked my way across to Picasso and 20th century Modernists. I use oil on canvas with brush or pallet knife.
