‘Birds in Art’ is one of the most prestigeous juried exhibitions, attracting entries from wildlife artists throughout the world. This is the 5th time I have had work selected for Birds in Art – my first time was in 1994.

University Chancellor!!!
I have been asked to be Chancellor of the Isle of Man branch of The Children’s University – an organisation to encourage greater diversity in learning outside school hours – apparently they wanted someone with an unusual background as Chancellor – and I get to wear a gown for presentations.
Take a look at their website – it’s an excellent and growing organisation
