Biography: |
| First of all I would like to thank Steven Cheng for my portrait on this website.
I was born in Montrose, Scotland and immigrated to Canada with my family at the age of ten. Following graduation from high school in Vancouver, I attended B.C. Vocational School and became a shipwright and boatbuilder. In the 1970's I took courses in visual arts and began painting in oils, acrylics, and in watercolours. I moved to Port Coquitlam in 1980 and eventually joined the Port Moody Art Association. I became the president of that organization in 1992.
I began teaching with the Artist in the Schools program and was, for a time, the artist in residence for School District #43 and taught part-time at Place des Arts in Coquitlam. In November of 1993 I formed Art Focus with the assistance of the Arts Council and Port Coquitlam Parks and Recreation. My paintings are on display in libraries and galleries, most notably in Port Coquitlam's city hall. Many of my paintings are in private collections in Canada, England, Germany,and Australia. Currently I teach watercolour and ink, acrylics, and drawing.
I reside with my wife in Port Coquitlam |
