After a childhood in the lovely green outer suburbs of London, I studied at the Architectural Association school of architecture in Bloomsbury, central London. My professional career included graphics, industrial design, architecture and urbanism in several countries, but I escaped architecture eventually, to become simply an artist. I have enjoyed creating in the landscapes of the Aude (France), where I exhibited in our own Galerie Artavec until the Covid-19 epidemic forced us to close it, and also in Catalonia, in Italy, and for three years in the wonderful unspoilt valleys of Transylvania. I am now settled in Brazil, where I am able to concentrate on plastic art.
