ABOUT ME

CV

I was born in Lahore in 1935 of British and Portuguese parents and was educated in India and England. My Father's family were indigo planters and dye manufacturers in north-west India.

For four years I studied painting and graphics at Walthamstow School of Art and the London College of Printing with tuition from teachers such as Georg Adam from the Bauhaus, George Chapman and Ruskin Spear. I was awarded the National Diploma in Design.

Working as an art director in England and Germany gave me a valuable insight into graphics, photography and all forms of print and for the last twenty years I have devoted my time to painting and print making.

I was elected an associate member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers in 2008
