My studio is also my gallery in <strong>the</strong> Royal William Yard where I have<br />
been for 15 years; I have been a painter for over 25. My practice<br />
has always been about life in <strong>the</strong> abstract: my recent work has been<br />
inspired by Thai temples and culture, crossed with our own culture.<br />
Thailand is a country I have been visiting for 20 years and which I<br />
call my second home. Gold leaf has become one of my favourite<br />
highlights which adds <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> style and colours I love <strong>to</strong> use with bright<br />
and lively marks. Paintings on show will include my latest Buddhastyled<br />
images and my abstract work I also have a series of jazz<br />
influenced paintings which have been popular over <strong>the</strong> years. I have<br />
started having fun with my very own framing where I have carried<br />
across <strong>the</strong> gold leaf and art <strong>to</strong> give a new interesting look.<br />
Disabled access not easy as we have two small steps, but if you<br />
phone ahead we can borrow a ramp from <strong>the</strong> gate house next door.<br />
My door is on <strong>the</strong> left hand side as you enter <strong>the</strong> yard. There is<br />
plenty of parking on site at £1 an hour (£2 for <strong>the</strong> first 2 hours).<br />
