I live and work in the beautiful Towy valley, Carmarthenshire, West Wales in the village of Fairfach near Llandeilo on the western fringe of the Brecon Beacons National Park, I have always lived in the locality apart from a 3 1/2 year spell working in London, I never trained as an artist , and only started painting in 1994, Having met and inspired by many professional wildlife artists such as David Shepherd, Owen Williams, Terence Lambert ,I began to think more seriously about my art work , and in the year 2000 decided to turn professional, My chosen medium is oil although I produce work in water colour and acrylic,My motivation for the work I produce is the particular landscape and wildlife that surrounds my home here in Ffairfach, there is such a diverse environment here in the Towy valley , from the mountains and hill farms of the Brecon Beacons, to the fertile Towy Valley from it's source at Rhandirmwyn to Llansteffan and Carmarthen Bay, Red Kites, Buzzard, Kingfisher, Heron, Wild Fowl, Otters all can be found here in abundance also Fallow Deer in the parks and escapees near Dinefwr and Gelli Aur, Light and atmosphere are paramount in my work,the capture of which in my view brings the painting to life, in particular winter snow scenes seem to have a special draw for me and have been some of my most enjoyable pieces of work to produce, Since turning professional in 2000 , I have slowly built up a presence in the locality and further afield , in the UK and Internationally, I currently have three galleries in Wales taking my work, one in England and One in the USA

I have worked on commissions for Premier Gardens Wales, Dyfed Powys Police, Trinity College Carmarthen and various other organizations, Since 2003 I have also been involved as a role model for the Welsh  assembly government , In their Dynamo Project visiting Schools as part of the Entrepreneur Business Development Program. 2006 Will be another interesting year, I hope to return to Scotland to gather more otter,pine martin and sea eagle reference, I will be traveling by kayak, which in my view is one of the best and most peaceful ways of getting in touch with wildlife.
