"I decided to become a painter when my first four paintings where all published and attracted a great deal of interest. I exhibited one of them and it was sold."
First
"My optimism for life carried through my work."
Life
"The paintings by Van Gough and Chagall had a big influence on me."
Influence
"I used to own a dingy and can still sail one if pushed, but I like the pleasure boats."
Boats
"On my return to Cornwall I discovered that I was living in a tropical paradise. For now I am content to explore my own home and our nearest neighbour France."
Home
"The majority of my work is from life. I spend most fine days from May to October painting outside."
Work
"I want to paint big, bright, optimistic pictures of the place I love."
Love
"I studied for my degree in London and consequently ended up spending five years away from Cornwall. I deliberately moved away from the coast to experience a different way of life."
Experience
"Painting is really good fun, I have always enjoyed it. As long as I paint what I want with the freedom that I enjoy, I never tire."
Freedom
"I was told I was talented when I applied to Falmouth School of Art and that I should consider skipping the course and proceeding directly to degree level."
