"I paint a wide range of subjects but have chosen to specialise in oil paintings of classic and modern racing yachts. I think the old classics are still the most awesome sight on the water. In a strong wind with the sun on their sails, powering down the Solent, racing past the Royal Yacht Squadron, they are magnificent. To be out on the water taking photographs as they speed past is an excellent day in the office."Recording history on canvas: America’s Cup Jubilee, 2001Trafalgar 200, International Fleet Review, 2005X One Design Centenary Regatta, 2011 Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, 2012PORTRAITSIndividual and group portraits of people and animals in oils or pencil.
