Artist (Painting) •

Born 1961 •

tree and painting enthusiast

I retired from illustration about 8 years ago and have been a full time landscape painter since then. I still do a few portraits, and paint a few animals, but it is the landscape , or more specifically, the trees, that make me want to paint each day. I now live in the middle of the Balkan mountains surrounded by the forest and have an endless source of inspiration. The overwhelming green of summer has little appeal, but as soon as the leaves begin to change color , I begin to feel inspired and gather endless reference for new work. So, most of the paintings here are autumnal, with the odd blossom picture dotted about.
