I paint landscapes and cityscapes both here in the
UK and abroad. I have been fortunate to paint with many of the UK
& USA ‘s finest living landscape painters and am fortunate to have many of them as friends.. I am proud to be a
member of The Royal Society of Marine Artists, The Wapping Group of Artists and
the Rye Society of Artists.
I live on the Isle of Oxney in Kent and paint outside in all weathers. My work is an immediate response to what I see and feel when immersed in the everchanging landscape. This process has opened my eyes to the beauty that can be found everywhere, even in the mundane.
I hope that you enjoy looking at my work and feedback is always welcome!

Hi Karl,
I had a Plein Air session with you and a few others in Richmond about 10 years ago! I since gave up painting and started a framing business, see URL above. I’m staying at the Gallivant in Camber sands for a few days while on a kitesurfing course. Just wanted to say that your paintings dotted around are absolutely fab!! What a great job they… and you have done… making this place a real home from home. Ian
