In my retirement I have pursued my interest in the creative arts, specialising in pastel as my chosen medium. As a retired vet, my understanding of animals allows me to add something extra to my artworks. Modern pastels and pastel pencils allow for more detailed artworks with increased depth and vibrancy. I like to think I make full use of this to create a style that is unique to me.
