I was educated at The Cedars School,  Bedford College and Kingston University, where I received a B.A. (Hons) Fine Art. 

My interests lie in animals, conservation and travel. I have always been fascinated by animals as well as the mythical, fantastic and magical. Animals are my greatest interest and the main subject of my work, particularly the big cats and other large wild beasts.  I love the majestic independence of tigers and in fact of all cats, including our domestic felines.

I use oil, gouache, photography and screen print to display my work. As well as animal portraiture I am interested in people and like to find ways of capturing  personality and character in a painting.

I spent some time in Africa at the Selati Game Reserve, working with lions, and then with the Save the South China Tiger Foundation and finally at the Lory Park Zoo, where I did a wall painting for their new cat enclosure. 

I am currently living and working in Australia.
