Welcome
Thank you for visiting my website: I hope you like what you see. I’ve been drawing and painting for most of my life and, since I moved to France a few years ago, I have been painting watercolours of the beautiful region where I live. The light, the colours, and the scenery have made this part of south west France a magnet for painters for well over a century so I feel privileged to live and work here.
Until relatively recently art was reserved for the rich, and more often than not painted art was limited to oils. Times have changed, however, and nowadays there is a greater choice at more affordable prices than at any time in history. What’s more, watercolour art, with its huge and subtle range of style and technique has become a genre in its own right.
Another major change in recent years has been the improvement in techniques for reproducing art, and while ownership of original work is still relatively expensive, good quality reproductions and prints are now available at very reasonable cost. As a result, these days it is possible for everyone to own, collect and enjoy art as never before.
As you’ll see, I offer original watercolours and prints (both mounted and unmounted). I can also undertake special commissions, painting a house or a scene that has particular significance for you.
All the information you need should be on the site but, if you have any questions, please contact me and I will get back to you. If you would like to come and stay here for an introduction to painting in watercolour on an individual basis, or just to come and paint, we can offer accommodation in one double room with private shower and toilet, in our beautiful architect-designed wooden home. For prices, availability and further details, please contact me.

The region where we live abounds with beautiful wild flowers, like these crocuses in the Pyrenees, which provide the inspiration for many of my paintings.
