When Richard and Vanessa turned on the website it saved my life and got me back to work big time.

When my model from the 1980's asked by email if I was the same artist she posed for all those years ago, I asked her to lunch. Now she models for me once a month - she's into burlesque and I simply love it.

I can't stop painting now. I seek to put humour, sense of movement and music subtly with the titillation and it is going great. Playing golf has had to take second place!
