About me

Thanks for viewing my work. Well in my spare time I am a wildlife artist and photographer . At least that is what I do in my spare time although I also play badly the Banjo and guitar.
I used to work as a Offshore Diver but had to give that up through an accident. This gave me time to concentrate on my wildlife sketches. I then purchased an entry level camera to provide reference photographs for my drawings. However I found I was spending more time photographing wildlife than drawing it and I became hooked on photography. During this time an ex girlfriend suggested I should try art nude photography and I was rather reluctant at first. But after doing some portraits for her friends portfolios I realised that artistic nude is an art form in itself and I find it a fascinating subject and am still very much at the learning stage.
If I had a mission as such it is to try to create beauty (try being the operative word ha ha) into what is becoming an angrier world by the day.
I used to be involved in Skydiving and Microlite flying when I was younger and still kid myself up I will get back into these sports.
My one regret in life is I did not get into drawing, art, photography and music much earlier in my life. Ah well there is still time
