Born in Lancashire in 1952 and trained as an architect, I have always responded to buildings, textures, the play of light and shade across surfaces, the way that structures sit in landscapes and gardens, and on a wider scale, the pattern of clouds in skies and the play of reflections in water
These concerns have fed into the artworks which I have created and exhibited over many years
Recently, I have made works in graphite on paper, developing a technique that is far from the standard use of pencil as a line instrument, the medium instead acting texturally and with an almost sculptural quality
My earlier creative output includes graphic design work and paintings in oil
