I have lived all my life in England's county of Lancashire, East Lancashire to be exact, under the brooding shadow of Pendle Hill. Pendle has always facinated me, its a hill steeped in legend, stories of witches, exacuted in nearby Lancaster Castle in a age of superstition and intoralance. It was from the summit that George Fox founder of the Quakers had his famous vision.
It is then from this historic area, that as I have been inspired to record this part of the world in watercolour and oil paintings, both rural and urban. There are many old industrial remnants, that have provided me with many subjects, a landscape that lies at Pendle's feet.
