I am a primary school teacher living and working in Manchester, England (I am a Mancunian although I support Everton!) and to get my work/life balance I am also a musician, photographer and artist.

I have been painting for some time, since I was old enough to hold a brush probably, and over the last ten years or more I have turned to collage as a medium and, more recently still, to printing; monoprints, collographs, etching, screenprinting and linoprints.

I have featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in England and Ireland. My work is in private collections in England, Ireland, France, Canada and the USA.

Epona is the Celtic horse godess and this reflects my Irish background on my paternal side.

I love my sister dearly but please take her testimonial of me opposite with a pinch of salt. She often got me into trouble with our parents and her hamster used to drive me mad on its squeeky wheel.
