I studied Fine Art at Middlesex University in London and then spent a year at Cooper Union School of Art, New York. I taught at the Kent Institute of Art and Design and then, for many years, was a Senior Lecturer on the Graphics BA course at Middlesex University. I have exhibited my work extensively in both group and solo shows. I have shown in various London galleries, elsewhere in the Uk and internationally in Lisbon. I recently relocated from London to Edinburgh where I now work full-time in my studio.

In 2016 I set up and now run, the Edinburgh Collage Collective. ECC is a non-for-profit Art Collective comprising of a group of collage artists that share a similar creative vision in their methods, materials and/or visual narratives. The aim of the collective is to create a network of collage artists to support each other, share ideas and promote interest in an area we all feel passionate about. We focus on workshops, exhibitions and public live events.

I think I’m a collagist simply because I love images. I'm a magpie for ephemera, searching out and collecting interesting visual material. The poetic quality of vintage material has a particular draw for me.
