Drawing and Still Life
Light, Line
and Place
I work from direct observation — in drawing and in paint. The same attention to structure, tone, and the fall of light runs through the studio: the line of a roof, the weight of a wall, the quiet of a still life or a landscape.
I work and teach from my studio within the historic grounds of Dalswinton Estate in Dumfries and Galloway. My work is held in private collections across the United Kingdom and Europe.

Painting in the Grounds of Dalswinton Estate
I run small, intimate courses here in plein air painting and still life. Serious instruction, personal attention. Maximum five students. Beginners warmly welcome.
The emphasis is on serious instruction, personal attention, and the quiet pleasure of learning to truly see.
