“I studied at Loughborough School of Art and The Royal College of Art, working in printmaking and sculpture. I have exhibited throughout the UK and internationally, most notably at The Royal Academy Summer shows and The Bankside in London. After moving to Wales twenty years ago I founded Aberystwyth Printmakers, and for most of my time there was involved in directing, curating exhibitions and running the group’s print workshop”
