“When we practice not making assumptions, we learn to see objectively – we don’t justify anything, we don’t judge or condemn, we don’t take positions for or against, we don’t lie to ourselves to protect our self image. We simply see things as they are. Looking at things objectively and non-judgmentally opens up a pathway out of the dream of hell.”

~ Don Miguel Luiz (Science of the Mind)

In 2014 Wendy and I married.  Thus began the start of a whole new phase of my life which we both decided should be outside of London in a calmer, quieter place which would have space for a purpose-built studio. Removing the shed from the bottom of the garden we ordered this fabulous painting space for me.

My first studio was in Carmel, Maine, in 2001, in my bedroom. I used this studio from then until 2005.

I lived in Hastings for 6 months in 2004, and painted in a basement.

In 2006, we built a new solarium, and this was my studio for a year until we moved.

Until 2009, my studio was incredibly spacious at Rowe’s apple orchard in Maine.
