The Paintings:
The paintings are carefully observed accurate studies of flowers fruit and vegetables. The medium of watercolour is perfect for capturing the translucent qualities and delicate textures of petals and leaves. Realism and truth to nature are my guiding principles. I aim to paint something so realistic you could pick it off the page!

Some of my favourite subjects are Grapes, Lilies, Orchids, Primulas and large exotics such as Strelitzias and Cannas. I have also produced a collection of work featuring blue and white china jugs from my own collection of Spode, Staffordshire and Masons Ironstone pieces.

Giclee prints:
A high resolution scanner is used to capture the vibrant colours and meticulous detail of the paintings. The image is inkjet printed, via computer, on to acid free 310g/m2 paper. This paper has a similar texture and colour to the finest quality hot pressed watercolour paper. New non-fading archive quality pigmented inks are used and the results are stunning. The prints are supplied in bevel cut, off-white mounts with a slight linen texture and wrapped in clear film for protection. The larger prints are packed with protective board for safe transportation.
