Ian was born in London in 1952.
He studied music and drama at Durham University and began selling work
shortly after. Although initially an artist in oils and acrylics he
began painting in watercolour on moving to Wensleydale in 1987. Originally
his approach to landscape painting was heavily influenced by the philosophy
of the English artist Paul Nash and, like him, Ian strives to invest
his work with the personality of the landscape he is portraying. His
style is definitely bold and to some degree lose. He uses a lot of controlled
wet in wet washes and is not afraid of using colour to create
very interesting landscapes. Ian splits his time between a career as
a music teacher and a demonstrator and artist. His paintings both traditional
landscapes and abstract are now sold in galleries all over the country.
