On leaving school I initially worked as a trainee in illustration for Stewart and Jeffries and Dave Fitzgerald (Sub studio for Saatchi and Saatchi) studios where I was taught Iodine retouching and some illustration and paste up work on accounts such as British Airways, Commer Vans, Tescos, Old Holborn, however  I diverted into a technical drawing office and subsequently had a career in North Sea Engineering, and it wasn’t until my early 50’s I returned to art as a hobby.
