Alongside full time work, I have two main passions in my creative life:

Writing - Having completed a degree in English Literature and Creative Writing, I am working on a series of pieces of creative work. Novels, in my much loved fantasy genre. All peppered with inspiration and images taken from Cumbria.

Painting - Working out of the spare room/office/studio, largely in Acrylcis (though with the odd dabble into Oil and watercolour) I enjoy capturing the feelng of the landscapes I love. Be it the rugged Lake District, as well known as it is, or the less trodden west coast of the county.

This site is my space to share those elements I love, thank you for visiting!
