Croeso!
Welcome to our web site. I have spent my entire career involved in art
in some way - from art directing, illustration, lecturing and
painting. It's the 'painting' bit
that I do full time now that I have retired to the mountains of
Snowdonia. As a professional lecturer I have developed and delivered many art courses in North Wales and south Buckinghamshire during the past thirty years as well as working as Creative Group  Head for Saatchi and
running my own communications business. In the past I have won the
'Marketing Award of the Year' from the DTI plus three D&AD Awards (the
BAFTA equivalent in the art and design world). Throughout this period I have
been drawn back time and again to Snowdonia like a yo-yo on caffeine.
Many hours have been spent exploring and recording the extraordinarily
wild landscape and the indelible legacy of slate quarrying that has
been etched into every conceivable facet. It is these images that I
have attempted to translate onto the greetings cards in the web site.
On of the 
great joys of going through this fascinating exercise is the huge
privilege of working with my recently graduated daughter who has shown
herself to be one of the best illustrators I have ever worked with.
The remarkable difference between the two styles is evident throughout
the site and is a great accolade and evidence of her total
independence of creative thought. |
