I
have also worked for many years as a teaching both art and
graphic design courses. I currently work as an Information Officer for the Wye valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which gives me the opportunty to publicise and promote this stunningly beautiful area. For information view the website here.
As a qualified BHSAI I have been involved in the horseworld both teaching
and riding which I love and get involved in when time allows. I own
an ever increasing menagarie of pets (most rescued and of indeterminate
parentage, including the horses). I am also involved in establishing a Riding Centre for Vulnerable Adults at Minsterworth and I am involved in the Forest of Dean Riders and Carriage Drivers Association which works to improve access for riders and drivers in the area.

I
am always pleased to speak about my my work and art/design in general
and welcome any comments. There is much more to me and my work than
these few pages but I hope I have given you a taste of what the Pigsty
Studio is about.
