I paint what I see, not what a camera would see.
In some parts of the world there is very little tidal movement.
I want to paint big, bright, optimistic pictures of the place I love.
I use a wide selection of colours. It is impossible to produce work like mine using only the primary colours as they only mix a certain range of colour.
The majority of my work is from life. I spend most fine days from May to October painting outside.
I have lived in Cornwall from the age of 4, so I have always been aware of the artistic heritage that the county has. I feel very proud to be able to connect to this.
