Simon, along with his wife Sally creates props, designs, models, murals, scenic backings etc. for museums, exhibitions, advertising, interiors, films and television. He also finds the time to paint privately.

Simon says of the 'Fun I & II' images, "These paintings are based on a traditional form of communication --the advertising hoarding - albeit in this circumstance torn, weathered and fragmented. To me these images represent that confusion, while ironically, simultaneously displaying an innate aesthetic attraction."
