The Weston Turville Reservoir Series is a collection of oil paintings inspired by the quiet beauty and ever-changing atmosphere of this tranquil location in Buckinghamshire. Walking to the reservoir daily, I am continually drawn to its reflective waters, the interplay of light and shadow, and the delicate ripples that move across its surface. This series is a celebration of the reservoir’s serene character and its ability to evoke a profound sense of peace and connection to nature.
Each painting in the series captures a different facet of the reservoir—its luminous skies mirrored in the water, the soft rustling of reeds along its edges, or the gentle presence of wildlife gliding through the calm expanse. The focus of these works is not only the physical beauty of the scene but also the atmosphere and emotion it inspires. Through the use of vibrant yet harmonious colours and expressive brushstrokes, I aim to convey the reservoir’s timeless tranquillity and its subtle, meditative energy.
The Weston Turville Reservoir Series also reflects my personal connection to this landscape. It is a place where I find calm, inspiration, and a sense of grounding—a natural sanctuary amidst the rhythms of daily life. Through these paintings, I invite viewers to share in this experience, to pause and reflect, and to feel the gentle balance of stillness and movement that defines the reservoir.
At its heart, this series is a tribute to the power of nature to restore and inspire. It explores the beauty found in simple moments: the soft drift of clouds across the sky, the glint of sunlight on the water, or the quiet ripple of a bird passing by. These paintings are an invitation to connect with the landscape, to find peace in its simplicity, and to celebrate the enduring harmony between light, water, and life.

The "Lake District" series is a deeply personal celebration of one of England's most cherished landscapes. Through this collection of oil paintings, I capture the beauty and emotion of a place that has shaped both my artistic vision and my family’s treasured memories.
These paintings reflect not just the breathtaking scenery of tranquil tarns, glimmering lakes, and rugged fells but also the joy and connection we found as a family during our holidays in this inspiring region. The series draws from moments spent walking through ancient forests, exploring winding trails, and watching my children delight in the simple pleasures of playing along riverbanks and skipping stones across the still waters of the lakes.
Each piece captures the shifting moods of the landscape—the vibrant greens of summer forests, the golden warmth of valleys in autumn light, and the ever-changing reflections on the water’s surface. The interplay of light and texture in my work mirrors the emotional depth of these places: the quiet majesty of towering peaks, the serenity of forest paths, and the lively energy of rivers and streams where we spent countless happy hours as a family.
Using oil as my medium allows me to layer colours and textures, bringing the intricate details of the Lake District to life. From the rocky outcrops to the soft interplay of light and shadow, I aim to evoke the spirit of this unique region while weaving in the memories of our family’s time there.
Through "Lake District," I invite viewers to share in the serenity, drama, and timeless beauty of this iconic region. More than a depiction of its landscapes, this series is a reflection of the bonds forged in nature’s embrace, celebrating the joy and inspiration that this magical place has given to me and my loved ones.

The "Wendover Canal" series is a deeply personal tribute to the quiet beauty and timeless charm of the Wendover Branch of the Grand Union Canal in England. As the artist, I walk daily along this historic waterway, drawing inspiration from its ever-changing light, reflections, and seasons. This intimate connection to the canal is at the heart of the series, allowing me to capture not only its visual beauty but also its emotional resonance.
Each painting in the series offers a unique perspective of the canal, from its tranquil waters reflecting the sky and overhanging trees to the winding pathways that encourage exploration and reflection. The daily rhythm of walking alongside the canal reveals its dynamic nature: the golden glow of autumn, the crisp greens of spring, the soft chill of winter mornings, and the ripples of wind across the water’s surface. These moments are woven into the fabric of each work.
Through the medium of oil, I build layers of texture and colour to express the intricate details of the canal’s environment—the weathered banks, the shimmering light on water, and the life found within its peaceful surroundings. This process reflects my personal journey of discovering new nuances of the canal each day, celebrating the beauty that can be found in the familiar.
The "Wendover Canal" series invites viewers to experience the calmness and wonder of this historic waterway, celebrating its connection to nature and its role in shaping the landscape. It is a tribute not only to the canal itself but also to the inspiration and peace it offers to those who walk its paths.

The "Piemonte" series is a deeply personal tribute to my native region of Piedmont, Italy, where rolling hills, ancient villages, and the rugged beauty of the Maritime Alps come together in perfect harmony. Through this collection of oil paintings, I celebrate the rural landscapes that shaped my upbringing and continue to inspire my artistic journey.
This series captures the essence of Piedmont’s diverse scenery, from the golden vineyards of the Langhe region to the dramatic peaks of the Alps that stand sentinel over the land. Each painting evokes the quiet beauty of these places: the sunlit valleys, the winding country roads, and the patchwork fields stretching as far as the eye can see. The interplay of light and shadow across the hills and mountains mirrors the rich textures and vibrant colours that define this unique region.
Beyond its physical beauty, the "Piemonte" series reflects a deep emotional connection to my roots. These landscapes are more than just views; they are a tapestry of memories—of walking through vineyards in the Langhe, feeling the cool mountain air of the Alps, and witnessing the changing seasons transform the rural countryside into a canvas of ever-shifting hues. This region’s rhythm of life, steeped in tradition and connection to the land, is a constant source of inspiration.
Through the use of oil, I bring depth and warmth to each piece, layering textures and tones to reflect both the physical landscape and the emotional resonance it carries. The rugged edges of the Alps, the soft, rolling hills of the Langhe, and the vibrant energy of rural life are brought to life in this series.
"Piemonte" is an invitation to explore the beauty, history, and soul of this remarkable region. It is a celebration of the land that has shaped me, an homage to the timeless charm of Piedmont’s rural heart, and a reflection of the profound connection between nature, memory, and art.
