I graduated at Portsmouth University with a M.A. in Art, Design and Media as a mature student in 2002. My chosen field at University was Sculpture, but finding myself in smaller living space, went back to my roots of painting and drawing. In the years since I have gained much valued encouragement and guidance from many local  artists.

It is with this encouragement I continue to display my work at Exhibitions like Southern Nature Art and Titchfield Art and Craft Show.

I find delight in painting the natural world using many different mediums. Recently using Ink and watercolour to achieve details and experimenting using a black background on which white layers are built up then add detail with multiple layers of colour. 

I have done the occasional commission of domestic animals like cats, hamsters.  Always finding a new way of working for the subject matter.

I hope you enjoy looking at my art. All paintings are for sale and I have  cards and prints of  a few of the paintings displayed here.  I have a Facebook Art page  VonartC  where you can see more of my artwork.
