I just finished hanging my solo show yesterday in The United Arts Club.

Thanks to Angel Loughery the clubs Arts Convenor for all her help and encouragement.

I’ve been working towards a collection of paintings that deal with my interest and involvement in the scooter scene in Northern England around the early to late eighties.

These images spark very fond memories for me of those good times.
Vespas and Lambrettas, Knesborough and York warm up meetings and the likes of Scarborough and Morecambe Scooter Rallies.

This is a site dedicated to classic scooters and the sounds associated with them.
Northern Soul, Studio-1, Trojan, Okeh, Stateside, Prince Buster, Wigan Casino.
