  • I've planned out a step-by-step approach you can follow along with, but mountains are diverse, and there's so much room for personal interpretation. Maybe you want to focus on the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, or perhaps you'd prefer to emphasize the rugged textures. There's no right or wrong way to go about it. Let your imagination soar..

  • I’ve been painting for many years now, taken part in many exhibitions around the world and won awards from well respected organisations. As well as having my work feature in art magazines. After having success selling my originals and 1000s of prints around the world, I decided to start traveling with my brushes and paintings. My style is modern and attempts to grasp the essence of what I’m painting whilst allowing freedom and expression to come through. I simplify complicated subjects into easier shapes that encourages playfulness..
