 The weary ploughman snores with weary task fordone (A mid summer nights dreamDear dank, dirty Dublin and not a cab to be foundHe that plants trees loves more than himself. (Thomas Fuller) 

After a lifetime in the publicity industry and with his inspiration

and creativity dwindling, this award winning copywriter and

Graphic Designer was looking for a new, creative challenge
So, he adopted his Irish name, picked up a brush for the first time

in his life and started to paint. Initially it was watercolours but

very recently he has started to use oils.
His very first watercolour won the Age Concern Competition for an

image to be used as a postcard for the village ofBlackheath.


His work is in private and public collections in both England and Ireland

and has appeared in several magazines
