After graduating from the Art College in Belfast, I worked in the Geology Department in Queen’s University for many years where I had lots of opportunities to be creative drawing illustrations and making displays. I now work as an illustrator in the Archaeology dept.



Down from the light

I paint in watercolours.
Lots of subjects excite me:
Beaches, harbours and boats.
The 3D world of the sea, it’s depths, ledges, shallows and rock pools.
Sunlight and shadows, glass, reflections and still water. And children’s faces.
