About me
I trained in illustration and printmaking but soon turned to painting.
About ten years ago I went back to printmaking concentrating on mezzotint, learning the technique on my own and through books. Since then I have been working on dozens of plates. My prints have been selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition for five times as well as for the ING Discerning Eye Prize and for the Royal Society of Portrait Painters.
