I am fortunate to have a blood line of very good artists in my family and from an early age I won lots of drawing competitions. I didn't choose to do Art in Secondary school because I found it highly boring and chose to do the more practical lessons like metal work and wood work. Even though I had mostly straight A's in all my chosen subjects, when it came to my G.C.S.E's, I more or less failed everything. Therefore my chosen career in Architecture was not going to progress. So my only option was to go to College and study Art (see the design page for more details).
My favourite medium is charcoal, chalk and pastels. Although I do enjoy using acrylics too; anything that is messy really. And as you can see from my examples, my favourite object to draw is the human form.
One day when I can't do as many things as I can do now, I will probably take up drawing again...
