It has taken time, but many of the works of art I have bought over the years are now in museums. Others are in the private collections, the rest are in storage in foreign countries. Sometimes I sold the work direct to museums, such as my charcoal drawing of Dalston Junction by Leon Kossoff. Or my Long Tom Tjapanangka painting Ayers Rock, Limestone Bore, Mt Leibig and Irantji 1995 that now resides in the QAGOMA in Brisbane. At other times I sold to art dealers or through auction houses. The two artworks mentioned were both purchased but many of the artworks I have had the...

“It’s the simple things” my Aunt said. The simple things we can enjoy again that we have missed. Meeting new people for instance, and seeing new things in real life not on a screen. I do love the things we have been able to do like walk on the seafront. Even cloudy mornings offer up their beauty.

Turner Yellow Sky With Red Sun, Deal Pier
The first time I saw Turners watercolours was at the British Museum in 1982. My grandparents had emigrated to Australia from Margate, where they had an antique store. My grandmother loved Turner's watercolours of Margate and often spoke of them when I was a teenager. I bought a book of Turner's watercolours on my way home to Putney, where I first lived when I moved to the UK. After reading the book I enrolled in an art course, from then on I was hooked.
