Dogs are an important part of my life and I enjoy capturing their character in a portrait.
My artwork is informed by the natural world, especially my love and knowledge of dogs.
I paint acrylic dog portrait, usually larger than life and my aim is to capture the character and essence of the dog in the painting. I usually work to commission.
Printmaking has allowed me to expand the way I express the character of a dog and to experiment with different subject manner. I find the texture and depth of image possible in the printed image inspiring.
Recently I have been experimenting by using pen, pigments and graphite to capture a more sketch type image. These have proved very popular.
Commissions undertaken. I do not have an on-line shop but most of my prints, some paintings, cards and books are for sale. if anything catches your eye do contact me.
