I was born in Bloxwich in 1952. I was fortunate or unfortunate enough to go to Walsall Art school as a hanger on, and also I did a year there. After many adventures I moved to London during the blackouts and strikes of the 80's. I completed a Millenium commission with the Peabody trust to create a series of paintings (and social documents) about Limehouse Chinatown. My other interests are songwriting, poetry and friends.
