Geoff was born and raised in the English Lake District but has spent most of his adult life in the south west of England.

Formerly a graphic designer and advertising art director Geoff is a self-taught fine artist working exclusively in oils. In 2005 he was elected a member of the Bath Society of Artists (BSA).

Over recent years Geoff's main pre-occupation and dominant subject has been the human head, often viewed from dynamic angles and usually on a monumental scale. The recurring theme in his work is the intimate view, whether concerned with figurative or landscape painting.

Geoff exhibits mainly in London and the South West, and has paintings in private collections in the USA & UK .
