Biography
I began my working life as a circus fire-eater and then spent the next decade working in the Australian Film Industry. I graduated from NIDA in 1986 and worked as a playwright in Australia until emigrating to the UK in 2002. My play ‘Glass Shadows’ was longlisted for the 2024 Victoria Wood Playwrighting Prize for Comedy. I am currently completing a documentary film on bell ringing with two other colleagues for the Devon Association of Ringers Centenary in 2025. As an astrologer I have published books, taught, and consulted for clients.
I gained my PhD in History of Art from the University of Bristol in 2014 and work as an academic, teaching on the Distance Learning MA in Cultural Astronomy and Astrology run by the Sophia Centre at The University of Wales Trinity Saint David. My academic research is in medieval art history.
I moved towards portrait painting as a way of understanding the medieval artists I was studying. Since September 2024 I have been enrolled in the MA in Fine Art (online) at Falmouth University.
I live in South Molton, North Devon.
