I am from, living and working in the Scottish Borders.
I trained in the London School of Printing in typographical design and I retrained in figure painting at Glasgow School of Art and the Arts Student League of New York - all part time because I had to make money to learn.
I'm interested in what interests all of us, I think, the stories we make up about things and places, and to communicate what delights me about the world.
