Before I begin a piece, I research the subject, make sketches and take photographs. I work with pastel and oil, using both brushes and palette knife on canvas and board. I place great emphasis on motion.

The palette knife technique allows me to scrape lines in and add texture to the surface during the work. Among my commissions I often paint prize-winning horses and their riders in their natural environment.
