My art qualifications and professional artwork experience are as follows:

Fine Art (painting) at Hammersmith College of Art from 1968 -1972 (London Certificate of Art and Design (Fine Art)

Art Teacher's Diploma Liverpool (then Polytechnic) 1973-74

For the next few years I taught painting part-time at two art schools, Chester and (the then) Wrexham Colleges of Art.

I then went on to teach painting in adult education and later I became Community Artist at the Kaleidoscope Youth and Community Project in KIngston Upon Thames.

Since then I have had a varied career in social and community work and social research but have continued to paint throughout.
