I have always drawn. I remember endlessly drawing Batman and Superman from the 50's and 60's DC comics together with the Disney characters of the day. Also cutting intricate paper patterns from large sheets of paper.

After Secondary school where I ran an art club, I passed the entrance exam for Salford School of Art, then part of Salford Technical College.

This was a four year full time course with 3 night classes until 9-00pm, including friday night. The course encapsulated Graphic Design, Illustration, Life Drawing, Photography, Model Making, Calligraphy, History of Art, Paper Sculpture and Print Making and probably others I have forgotten.

After passing the college Associateship at the end of the course I then worked for several large Manchester Advertising Agencies and Art Studios.

In 1972 I opened Comprehensive Art Services in the centre of Manchester with my partner Stewart Beckett.

We had an impressive client base ranging from Brewery's, City Centre Agency's, International Recording Artists, Manufacturing Engineers, National Structural Engineers & Builders and a large selection of the Manchester Club Scene.

This was per-computer when everything was done on the drawing board as full colour illustrations and camera ready colour separated flat artwork.

This lasted for 23 years when the introduction of computers and rising rates and rent meant it became time for a change.

In 1995 the partnership split amicable when we both started seperate businesses. I started trading as Traditional & Computer Art Services.

Most works in this web site are available as Giclée prints in various sizes and are limited to 250 copies.

Giclée prints are produced with 6 or 7 colour life long inks which produce Museum Quality prints on acid free papers with a non-fade life in excess of 75 years.

Each print will bear my signature, studio seal and unique number and will be accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

The signature authenticates each reproduction of my original work and being printed to order, ensures the quality meets my stringent standards.

I hope you enjoy looking through the many pages of this site and return frequently.

I will endeavour to update the site on a regular basis.
