I grew up and trained in Holland. People are central to my work, which is also based on the close observation of the natural world. Often my paintings, etchings and stained glass tell a story.

I am a member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists and the Worcestershire Guild of Designer Craftsmen.

I will next be showing stained glass and etchings in the Crafts Marquee at the Three Choirs Festival, Hereford, from the 8th till the 15th of august.

In October there will be an exhibition of my work at twenty twenty, www.twenty-twenty.co.uk
