Biography

MY INSPIRATIONS
are love, landscape, literature, expressed in acrylics, chalk pastels, inks and watercolours.
THE EARLY YEARS
I was born in rural Northern Ireland and began exhibiting my artworks in 1976, when I graduated from Belfast College of Art, where I had studied Painting and a postgraduate year in Printmaking.
In 1993, I relocated to the Lincolnshire Wolds - its huge open skies and undulating landscape was so different to my previous inner city life! Now I lived surrounded by huge beech trees and seeing the moon and stars captured in the branches inspired me. My earlier works had been totally figure-based, but in time my figures became part of a landscape - and eventually painting the landscape itself is now important to me too.
I've always exhibited regularly and in 1987 was proud to be one of seven artists representing Northern Ireland at Fung Ping Shan Museum in Hong Kong. In 1998 Mount Berry College, U.S.A. hosted my solo exhibition.
