 I am a contemporary artist concentrating on non-representational painting. My work does not depict objects of the natural world. It seeks to convey the immutable, intrinsic qualities of a subject or landscape, the very essence if you like.
I work in a variety of media, from oil, acrylic and mixed media. I use several layers, mostly involving many different textures, such as sand, clay, glass, wire and ceramics, providing a variety of textural elements to my pieces.
My paintings are spontaneous. I begin each piece with a vague idea, which I cultivate to grow and evolve. My landscape work uses a limited palette, which is striking and expressive in itself. I tend to blend colours directly on the canvas, and then layer several glazes. I work with colour and texture in this way, with no interest in realism or recognisable forms. I love the complexity of colour, and its subtle harmonies. My work expresses this emotional wealth of colour and texture, infused with a deep passion for nature.
Painting, is an exhilarating journey for me, where I can express my thoughts and emotions, and consistently challenge myself.
I see the paintings as snapshots of unmistakable moments when the world is motionless.
Recently, I have been working on a new series of landscapes. These landscapes or seascapes are expressed through colour, with only an allusion to the chosen landscape itself. Each piece has a direct bearing on the previous landscape. Ultimately, fragments of each landscapes spirit will unite and fuse together, forming a larger body of work.
