ARTIST INFO
About
I find painting a pleasure. My work is intuitive by nature, expressing aspects of my current life and psychological states. There is an urge to create, to describe forms in paint that feel natural to me and I aim to communicate the beauty, and sometimes darkness, that is in the world around us. I do not wish to impose a pre-determined meaning of the themes in my work onto the viewer; but to let the painting talk for itself. The process of creating the work is in essence a means of discovery, to be fundamentally grounded in the personal human experience yet retain a sense of mystery. There is a divide in our culture at the moment and I would hope that through seeing simple balance of form, line and colour on a canvas, a painter can do a small part in closing that divide; to bridge gaps between the minds of people is surely why we indulge in the process of creating.
