PLEASE KEEP VISITING TO VIEW MY PAINTINGS .
Welcome to my gallery of oil paintings. I hope you enjoy your visit.
All are original works, taken from sketches and paintings made on location.
My landscapes are about a sense of being involved with the land and enjoying space and a feeling of escape. I also love to paint rivers, lakes and seas - water in all aspects.
The actual location is very important to me in all my work. I want to evoke the mood of the place.
In seascapes, I express the power and movement of the seas and the beauty of the colours in the water in different atmospheres and seasons.

I love colour and I nearly always work in oils because they provide me with such rich colours and lovely blending effects.
I exhibit at galleries on the west coast of Ireland in Westport, the location of many of my paintings. The Corner Gallery in Cheadle, Cheshire, UK is also showing my work. I have contributed to exhibitions in North Wales and I have exhibited at Cheshire's Castle Park Arts Centre; Gateway Theatre, Chester; Plas Glyn-y-Weddw, Pennsychnant, near Conwy, North Wales and with a small group of Welsh artists at Erddig Hall (National Trust), North Wales.
You can purchase my original paintings. An original and unique oil painting will give pleasure for many years to come and makes a very special gift. No one else will ever have that painting in their home or office! Prices range from just under £100 to £300, depending on the size and complexity of the piece. Viewings can be arranged or I can send you a sample print of the work for further consideration. I am also available to carry out commissions.
