I am primarily concerned with painting light and its effect on the landscape or objects, this entails using colour in an expressive way. In my artwork I attempt to create jewel-like paintings full of impact, texture, mood and vibrant colours which nevertheless have a sense of space, place, peace and harmony. It is the tension between these aspects which provides the challenge and the uniqueness in my work.
As a lifelong practitioner of Yoga and meditation techniques I work from that quiet inner space. I like to take my time before painting a landscape and may visit locations many times preferring the landscape reveal itself to me as I suddenly see the true magic of what can often be a commonplace scene, passed by without note, suddenly revealed by the magic of a fleeting moment.
