"My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all."
John Lennon
Praise for my work...
"[Neil's] paintings have a strong sense of emotion, narrative and personality."

"The portraits are brilliant. Really unflinching. [Losing Mel] is stunning. Like a Raymond Carver story on canvas; so much life encapsulated in a tiny space... I feel a little in awe."
Billy Ivory (Writer of A Thing Called Love, BBC, 2005)
