I make Art in Dorset

And have been making art in Dorset for about eight years now since moving from Chobham Surrey. Our new home had a large garage which I have converted into two art studios - one for me and one for my wife who also paints. The loft has been converted to a room which is now our art gallery.

Originality Matters

So much of the art we see is far from original - there are copies, prints and AI generated images. Come and view these unique paintings. I guarantee all the art to be original abstract paintings and no copies of any kind have been made. You can browse and ask questions and buy a piece if you wish to.

Here are a couple of paintings to show you the type of work I am doing currently...
