Although I have no formal art education or training I began painting to satisfy a creative urge . I have now been painting for more than 30 years. I am a regular participant in group shows around Melbourne , and also sell internationally via my website dmross.net . My work is held in private collections in many parts of the world including Dubai, Singapore, Japan, USA, England, Italy, Netherlands, Spain….and Australia.
