I started painting as a hobby painter in 1990 at the age of 42 and am self-taught. Part of my enjoyment has been researching the methods and techniques used by the old masters.

​

After eight years of visiting our family on the Sunshine Coast my wife and I finally moved to Australia as permanent residents in 2021.

I was fortunate enough to join Craft Cottage painting group soon after arriving in Buderim. I have been made very welcome by this band of incredibly talented artists.
