Since an early age I have found that I have a god given natural artistic talent - as a child I entered a few juvenile art competitions in which I received first prize.  Instead of going to university I entered the family business, so I am a completely self-taught artist. 

On retiring four and half years ago I find I spend most of my days in my studio, and as a keen sailor paint a lot of aquatic paintings.  l work in various mediums my preference being oils.  I live in Perceton in the West Coast Scotland.
