Born in Brighton in 1958, I moved to Worthing in 1963, where I lived for 25 years until I left to study Art History as a mature student at Middlesex University. I got my degree in 1989 and managed to achieve my ambition to work at the National Gallery.

Ten years later, another dream was realised when I did Foundation Studies at Chelsea College of Art. After that, I began a career

in magazine publishing and ended up as assistant editor of Art Quarterly magazine. Since moving back to Worthing, I’ve focused on developing my art practice.
