I live and work in Hull, UK. I graduated from the Hull School of Art & Design in 1991 with a BA (Hons) First Class in Fine Art. Since then I have worked within the visual arts as a self-employed artist (2001 to present), as Arts Development Manager for a visual arts project in Hull (1996 – 2001), and as curator/organiser for various projects and exhibitions, as well as being in studio groups in Hull. I now have my own studio. Below is my brief CV with a selection of exhibition images.
