Born Melbourne, 1953.  He began painting watercolours at Ku-ring-gai Arts Centre during the 1980′s with Owen Thompson, and at the Royal Art Society of New South Wales with Frederic Bates OAM.  He has a degree in Geography and this informs his analysis of and appreciation for the landscape.

Rob visited Normandy in France in 2003, and this experience led to his solo exhibition with the theme of the fisherman of Honflur, France.

He has been a featured artist in the Australian Artist magazine(October 1996, June 2002, September 2004 and November 2005).  The most recent of these essays examined his painting from Tuscany.
