Interests

From an early age I loved drawing and painting wildlife and in particular birds, this led to a love of and greater knowledge of the countryside.

Following a number of one man exhibitions (starting at the age of 15!) it was assumed my career would be in art, however just before I was about to go to art college, I was offered a job with a local photographer and at the time the choice between struggling artist and what I thought an exciting career in photography. I took the job... the rest is history.



I have continued my painting as a hobby ever since but over the last two years have devoted more time to it, again having now got a purpose built studio over looking the fields of wildfowl on the river Loud.

I am a keen fisherman, having been taught to fish on
local rivers by my grandfather, (this obviously helped to develop my interest in birdlife). I try to spend as much of the summer and autumn months fishing for Salmon on local rivers with visits to Scotland and Ireland

I am also a keen Cook in my very limited spare time.  I love creating new ideas, which, where ever possible includes local produce and fresh fish...
If its been a good fishing year !!
