On leaving Glasgow School of Art in 1966 I realised that I had learnt little
technique and no philosophy of painting.I therefore set myself a program of ammending these lacks. This
was encouraged by the fact that along with Rolf Neilsen I had booked a show for January 1967 and I was
determined not to have any art school work in theexhibition. I started on the program of coming in from
work and painting every night for about four or five hours
whichlasted until I gave up
paid employment in 1986. In my
quest to impove my painting technique I was fortunate in having Charlie
Boyle as a neighbour.. Charlie was a contemporary at art school but had served
his apprenticeship as a painter and decorator before going there. I will
always be grateful for the advice he gave me at this time. To see a sample of
