I use a brush to paint with acryllic on panel or stretched linen. I often use a scraping back effect in my artwork. I use paper, which is from a sustainable source. I usually work on two artworks at a time. I work from elderly archive monochrome negatives and am able to originate an accurate approximation of the colour. I also draw from life. Before creating my artwork I usually prepare a painstakingly detailed drawing. I regularly travel to the house/studio that my wife and I share in Haripal/West Bengal to depict the many idiosyncratic Hindu temples in the vicinity. I also live in a particularly beautiful part of the UK with inspirational views from my house
