Abstract paintings conveying visual notes from the heart and other wild places.

My paintings are the vehicles that carry me to connection with my self and my environment.

Each piece of work is created with no expectation or assigned outcome. I am open to pure possibility and that excites me. It is only when it is done that I start to identify places, feelings and emotions.

There is no prescribed time taken . Sometimes a painting will identify itself to me very very quickly , whilst others can take many weeks of constructing and deconstructing layers and marks , but the point of completion is never in doubt.

My surroundings most definitely inform my paintings but rarely dictate them.
