He has held numerous one man exhibitions in the East Midlands area and has shown work in major exhibitions around the country including the Royal Society of British Artists and the Royal Institute of Oil Painters.
Work was selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition for a number of years and he is represented in the permanent collections of Nottinghamshire Library Service, Heiligenhaus Civic Collection, the University of Nottingham and numerous private collections.
A trained painter and ceramicist he is an honours graduate of the Universty of Loughborough, holds masters degrees from the universities of Nottingham and Lougborough. He is a member of the Royal Society of British Artists, an associate member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.
He is President of the Mansfield Society of Artists, is a well known researcher and lecturer on the arts and is an associate tutor at the University of Derby.
Has been involved in art education as head of department and faculty in several comprehensive schools, worked at Mansfield College of Art and established and co-ordinated Nottingham University's School's Partnership arranging exhibitions of school student's work linked with workshop and gallery sessions for schools throughout the East Midlands.
The inspiration for his paintings comes mostly from the East Anglian landscape, Suffolk Second World War coastal defences and images of dereliction and the shapes created by decaying buildings are of particular interest to him and are the focus of much of his recent work. The landscapes convey the mood of each particular place as well as giving an impression of the essential geographical and physical features of the area portrayed.
In the paintings based on fetes, parties, sports and summer activities the intention is to capture and convey often through an exuberance of colour, a sense of joie de vivre.
The hard edge flat style of painting emphasises the stark competition evident in much of his work and the paintings achieve their effect by the careful overlay of thin glazes of oil colour, creating subtle and often unusual colour combinations.

The Royal Society of British Artists

A group of painters met at Lincoln’s Inn Fields on May 21st 1823, to form the ‘Society of British Artists’, whose manifesto stated, ‘This organisation was not formed to rival existing societies but that every Member was to be at liberty to assist and support any other society.’

Artists at this time were the equivalent of the celebrity stars of today, feted by the aristocracy and royalty and collected by the powerful industrialists of the day. The elite amongst these were sometimes granted membership of the Royal Academy, but as the membership was limited to fifty members made up of sculptors, printmakers and architects as well as painters, the election of a new Academician was dependent upon the death or resignation of an existing incumbent. The birth of a new society was inevitable and £1000 was raised for such a purpose. The Society’s new galleries were created in Suffolk Street only a short distance from the Royal Academy in Somerset House. These galleries were designed by the fashionable Regency architect John Nash.

The Society began with just twenty-seven members under the Presidency of Thomas Heaphy, plus a complement of five Honorary Members. It took until 1876 for the numbers to reach fifty.

The progress of the Society was hindered by financial problems caused by the innovative roof designed by the architect John Nash, which began to collapse not long after the galleries were opened.

Although the Society was granted a Charter in 1846 it was not until Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee Year of 1887, under the leadership of James McNeill Whistler, that the Society won the right to the prefix ‘Royal’. Whistler raised the profile of the Society by setting standards of acceptance, which attracted the attention of not only London’s aristocracy and fashionable society, but also of both Monet and Alfred Stevens, who became Honorary Members.

In the years that followed, the Society attracted many painters and sculptors of note including Walter Sickert, LS Lowry, Henry Moore, Peter Greenham, Sir Roger de Grey, Carel Weight and Colin Hayes.

In 1970 the RBA transferred its assets to become the main contributor to the Federation of British Artists at the Mall Galleries and, under the present leadership of our president James Horton, it continues to pursue artistic excellence.
