He has just sold his first one to a race horse trainer, he specialises in racehorses because he loves the movement of horses.But he also does random stuff too.Its a pencil drawing he just sold, i will show you some on fb if you like.
He also did a portrait of John Mccririck and sent it to him,John loved it.
