I think the tools of industry have a particular beauty. Ā In these still lives I have tried to curate arrangements that feature the sorts of implements I use every day in my painting studio, alongside the vices, spanners & drills I often come across in the yards. @scottishgallery

Prime Minister Gladstone named the area of Teeside around Redcar, the āInfant Herculesā. At that time steel manufacture employed 40,000 people helping power the Industrial Revolution. My visits in 2012-17 coincided with the demise of this industrial powerhouse @scottishgallery
