"I have been painting portraits
for ten years and work from my studio in Penzance, Cornwall. I use
oil to capture a true likeness of my subjects. I work from a combination
of sittings, drawings and photographs and the portraits are painted
using a traditional method employed by portrait painters since the
16th century. This means the paintings have a strong vividness of
colour and an increased longevity"
