Breaking Down Barriers

Suffering from Asthma from a very young age and then later diagnosed with dyslexia, school did not provide the thriving environment it could have been. Tony refuses to be held back by what life throws his way. Indeed he says it is the fuel he uses to push on and be successful.

There were no artists as role models who had ever lived on his council estate. After leaving School he did what he was told as a young man making his way in life with jobs in building to Infantry soldier, Window cleaner, Student Geologist, the Environment. Finally ending up as a entrepreneur and philanthropist.

After twenty years of juggling what his peers had described as proper jobs it was time for a life changing career choice.

In 2000 there was no stopping his art calling and he started his full time art career. This went so well that in 2004 with the support of his wife Yvonne he founded and launched the Art House Gallery in Kelso nestled in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The Gallery fast became one of the finest art destinations in Scotland today.
