The body of work I have established up to the end of 2010 has been the result of largly self taught practice and experiments with different media together with some part time tuition. This tuition has greatly helped me to explore different painitng techniques and has been an invaluable method of finding a means of expression in my more recent work. Towards the end of 2010, I decided to enroll on a more intensive course that has the aim to elevate my work to a professional status.
