      Through Sean's art we are privileged to glimpse a bygone era, capturing a  Britain that has largely disappeared, swept away in the name of progress, his pictures recreate our bountiful heritage.   Interpreted in Sean's talented and unique style, whether a railway, transport, countryside or military picture, each depicts the everyday doings of ordinary people; a moment in time evoked and so atmospheric, we can smell the smoke or feel that cold wind blowing.
       Sean was born in 1948 in Rowlands Castle, Hampshire, he studied graphics, photography and film making at Portsmouth College of Art. A self taught artist, he turned  professional in 1976, leaving his post as signalman on the railway to further his artistic career.  So well respected was his work he was elected Chairman of the Guild of Railway Artists in the early '80's. His works, mainly in watercolour,  but also in gouache and oil, hang in the Science Museum, National Railway Museum, Brigade of Guards Museum and in the Sergeants' Mess of the 1st. Battalion of the Grenadier Guards, national institutions, multi-national organisations as well as many private collections all over the world.
       His pictures help us to remember our social history,  they touch us with fond nostalgia,  their timeless charm and realism is attributed to his painstaking research and driving desire for accuracy, capturing that moment in time which the camera missed.
