Fine artist, musician, composer and border reiver descendant!
By professional training I am a musician and composer but I have a passion for this region which I love to explore through both music and art. Prior to studying music at the University of Newcastle, including postgraduate studies in composition, I studied fine art at the then Sunderland Polytechnic (now the University of Sunderland.) I paint mainly in oils and acrylics as I love their vibrant colours, with the occasional venture into watercolour. My subject matter is eclectic: animals, land and seascapes. However all my images are inspired by my surroundings, as is my music. Why not visit my website to find out what I'm up to right now? Or listen to a snippet of my latest music composition? Cheers, Francis
