We built this city

An oil painting based on sketches done in Manchester on days out with the Manchester Urban Sketchers. It is based on an area behind the Hotspur Press building and Deansgate station. It reflects the continuing construction and growth of the city and is counterpoint to some of my other artworks which reflect the history and urban decay of the city.

How long Hotspur?

My painting of the Hotspur Press building – very topical as the building has recently made the news by burning down in a major fire – and we now know exactly how long Hotspur had.

Moorland Walk

An oil painting inspired by my walks across the Moorlands of England.

Glass Cage

I love stained glass. Having sold images of Lyme Cage in a variety of other mediums I wanted to try a version in Stained glass.

Fishing for compliments

Having created smaller versions, for our exhibition I decided something larger and more of a challenge was required with the addition of driftwood from the shores of Somerset and Devon.
