As a professional artist my work has enjoyed exhibitions throughout the UK, which include, The Mall Galleries, The Peoples History Museum, The Jewish Museum, as well as numerous commercial galleries. A social realist concern has always been the basis for my work. However, recently portraiture and figurative compositions have become central to my development.
