Education
1983-86: MA (Painting), Royal College of Art, London
1978-82: BA Hons (Fine Art), Slade School of Fine Art, University College London
1977-78: Foundation, Chelsea School of Art, London
I studied under and alongside many well-known and talented British artists and teachers: Ron Bowen, Sir William Coldstream, Graham Crowley, Jennifer Durrant, Stephen Farthing, Peter de Francia, John Golding, Sir Lawrence Gowing, Timothy Hyman, Andrzej Jackowski, Tess Jaray, Ken Kiff, Christopher le Brun, Leonard McComb, Paula Rego, Patrick Symons, and Euan Uglow. I carry these conversations in my DNA. The idea of ‘the hard-won image’ from the Slade is intrinsic to my studio practice and teaching philosophy. I value the narrative tradition of the Slade, weaving back to Paul Nash, Stanley Spencer, Samuel Palmer, and William Blake. I am one of the few British artists trained at both the Slade and the Royal College of Art. This is where I come from.

Booklist
My research base covers art history, anthropology, neurology, philosophy, poetry, psychology, psychoanalysis, history, literature, science and theology to explore colour (paint), materials, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, creativity and the imagination.
