The Claremont is back in it's fourth year as an Open House and proud to be showing one of the biggest and most impressive collections of contemporary art in the Festival.

We hope the combination of over 30 artists contributing stunning new work in a wide variety of mediums throughout this charming Victorian building and walled garden, plus the chance to sneak a peak at Brighton and Hove's first five-star guest accomodation, will make this an opportunity not to be missed!

During May, we are open every weekend 11-6pm EXCEPT Sunday the 22nd but we are open on the Bank Holiday Monday (30th)

I record subjects that people can relate to when they are out walking. Sea and landscape, industrial design, space and movement. These powerful starting points are expressed in a wide variety of media, from acrylic painting and collage to pencil and pen, it depends on mood and location.
Sometimes abstract and decorative other times technical and realistic. My drawings/paintings/prints are sculptural with emphasis on colour and line, quite free and atmospheric.

I start on location then work at home on a variety of papers. Size is from A5 to A1.
