Featured Artist
Painter, who studied sciences at London and Cambridge Universities, then art at the Slade School. He also attended the Courtauld Institute of Art in 1959, where he studied Old Master techniques and conservation. In the 1960's he established a course at Wimbledon College of Art dealing with the chemical aspects of artists' materials, and in the early 1970's he became Head of Three-Dimensional Design at Kingston Polytechnic. He exhibited at the New Art Centre, London and in 1969 he became co-editor of the journal Leonardo. His abstract paintings based on Indian musical themes were exhibited at Richard Demarco Gallery, Edinburgh, in 1970. On his retirement in 1993, he was appointed emeritus professor of Kingston University. Museums Sheffield holds an example.
He should not be confused with an identically named artist who was born in 1956.
