The last two years have been busy for Ian’s studio work.  In February 2006 he successfully showed a number of artworks at the Drawings and Paintings Fair, Royal Academy, London and sold five out of the eight paintings on display with Elford Fine Art.  In May, he was invited to hang new works at the Delamore Arts exhibition, the prestigious showcase for artists in Devon.
Later in Elford Fine Art hosted Ian’s one man show at their Tavistock gallery.  This was the first and only time the entire collection from his book Classic Boats of the West Country would be shown. 
Ian has also undertaken several private commissions.  One in particular, for the Royal Navy, was a painting of their latest survey ship HMS Enterprise.  (See painting below)
Ian is currently working on his new book of paintings, the first of two on the coastline of the west country where he lives.
