"I was born in Perth Western Australia,
where after completing school I studied Mathematics at the
University of Western Australia, this was followed by a Post
Graduate Degree in Computer Science.
It was therefore not until later in life after
years of working in IT and studying drawing and painting on a part
time basis that I was able to follow my teenage ambition of studying
Fine art.
Resigning from the business world I completed a
full time Fine Art degree with first class honours. I now live and
work in Scarborough, North Yorkshire."
