Inspired by La Stangala in Northern France which i visited when I lived in Brittany. The cave there has a magnificent view over a deep ravine which I think this work captures.

For as long as I can remember, I have liked castles. Working in the cellars of Alnwick Castle is an abiding memory. The naivety of this work harps back to my childhood. This diptych is a little piece of history.

About the fall of Berlin Wall, I tried to capture the violence and pathos of the event.

Sennon Cove is one of my favourite places in the Penwith Peninsula, beautiful and rugged with a big heart.

Painted due to my involvement in the refurbhishment of Shiphay Manor, Devon.

The spirit of myth, legend and a sense of place. Rich coloured material in this collage piece are combined with the traditional castle motif.

A painting inspired by the beautiful walled gardens of Jacques Majorelle, the French painter.

A colourful, heavily textured representation of the sculptural forms of Antoni Gaudi on the majestic roof terrace of 'The Casa Mila' in Barcelona.

Inspired by the colourful geometric patterns of the Ndbele community in South Africa.

This work recalls the sights and sounds of the city walls of Marrakesh.

This work recalls the stalks which nest on the ancient walls of the El Badi and Royal Palace in Marrakesh. They watch over the changing scene below, making their nests as they have done for centuries, mystical guardians of the march of time.

This is one of my favourite haunts whilst in Barcelona. Set in the Placa Reial it provides an old English atmosphere in the midst of a typically Spanish city. The painting employs the use of an abstract aerial view of the square and its buildings, typical of the St Ives School.

The blue house is surrounded by a magnificent tropical garden, an oasis of calm in Marrakesh.

A view from the village of Moushole with its fishermans' cottages revealing the occasional peeps of the sea. Currently on show at the Salthouse Gallery in St Ives. Please visit the gallery website for further details.

One of three works based on the views of Barcelona currently at the Triton Gallery. Please visit the gallery website for further details.

The harbour

Scene from the Alhambra including border frottage.

Based on memories of Trethevy Quoit in Cornwall.

A haven of cool in a hot Generalife.

Based on a tale from Washington Irving's book 'The Tales of The Alhambra'

The bloodthirsty past of the Hall of Lions in the Alhambra Palace belies the peaceful ambience of its central motif, a fountain supported by stone lions.

The steep hills of the town lead down to a cafe on the harbour.
