Graduate of Hornsey College of Art and the Slade School, London.
​
Trained primarily in etching and aquatint under Michael Rothenstein at Hornsey and Bartholomew dos Santos at the Slade. Expertise and repertoire as a printmaker has expanded over time generating deep layers of imagery. Subject matter includes fantastical, historical and representational themes often using collaged imagery - of politics and patriotism; religion and royalty ;sex and gossip ; the strange and exotic. Default imagery, however, is always that of the Horse. Etchings and lithographs have been described as
both decorative and chaotic.
