Mike Duckering first studied architecture at the University of Bath. He worked for many years as an architect in Bristol, establishing his own practice in 1986. After retiring from architecture, he went on to study art at the University of Gloucestershire, gaining a BA Fine Art degree in 2013.
Mike is known for his dynamic depiction of landscape and urban spaces around Bristol and Cheltenham, and also in the many parts of the world visited on his travels. His work reflects an emotional response to place and the abstract patterns of form and colour that become future memories.
