I was born in Redruth, that's my best qualification to date I am a self taught artist I work mostly in acrylic but am just as happy doing mixed media work.

Cornish Artist specialising in Cornish history and Cornish mining illustrations, I produce Cards Prints Bookmarks and Keyrings from my original Illustrations and Paintings. This page is about my work as a Cornish Artist specialising in Cornish Artwork Cornish Mining history and anything to do with or connected to Kernow its Heritage Culture or People. I love working in Graphite and I go weak at the knees if I get a commission to work from an original black and white photo from the 1800s I suppose my best learnt skill is sketch work and my accurate study, Art for me as a Cornishman has taken me on a journey into Cornish Language, Nationalism and a learning of some wider issues that affect Kernow as a Celtic Nation

I did the initial sketch of this scene about 20 years ago. Procrastination I guess as I did the colour work recently. It's from an original sketch in graphite and re worked in Acrylic 24 X30" of the Central Mining District circa 1900 looking East across the Tuckingmill valley.

I did this sketch in graphite back in 2003 it's on 250gsm card and sealed, that I've pasted onto board, its the Camborne Illogan Mining District, the image is scaled up from a photo taken circa 1900 in the Central Mining Area of Cornwall GB I always intended to paint this, but procrastination got in the way. So I'm finally going to paint it.
I'm also doing some videos of the mining history and my progress as the colours build up. More to follow.
