1962 he was awarded the National Diploma in Design in Painting and

resurgent Pop Art movement in painting. He particularly admired the
works of Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol.
He extended his training at The University of Leeds where he was
awarded his degree and then began his career as a teacher of Art and
