I was born 1945 in London. At the age of two months I was taken to Colombia, my Mother's country, to live with her family. We lived there until I was about eight years old, then I went to live with my Father and his second wife in Jamaica until I was 11 years old. I came back to England and was sent to school, horrible .
I have always drawn and painted. I have had no formal training but seemed to be able to draw and paint whatever interested me.  I have a love for painting in oils... rich colours, so much to continue to learn, brush work, texture, emotional expression.
Another area that I love really working is collage; building layers of paint, paper, gold and silver leaf etc. A way of describing the minute and frequently overlooked detritus of the local hedgerows, the decay which is the foundation of new life, the beautiful cycle of nature. I love the trees of Bodmin Moor, wind-sculpted, a symbol of resistance and strength.
