This oil painting, now hanging in the Bath Gallery is 2" x 8", it fills the back wall.

Yesterday a wonderful man walked into my gallery. His name was Fil Straughan, a singer with a big voice and even bigger personality.

Remember Fil, my paintings stopped you in your tracks and late as it was you came in to ask about them.

Well no matter what I paint, my work is about passion, love and the belief that we can make things better if we try. I want my paintings to leave the viewer warm, happy and comforted.

Not knowing anything about music I listened to your Youtube video of "On my Knees" (now a firm favorite). I can tell you now that these paintings were created by a woman that has been, but is no longer on her knees.
