Statement

A real Artist, Poet or Composer does not wake up one morning and decide to create their Art or Compositions. They have been born with an inner drive to create and express themselves and in the process create beauty and magic.

I am passionate about my work and have a consistent need to express my vision whether it is in my painting or my photography. For me the most important and happiest time is when I am painting or recording the beauty and magic of Nature and am able to share my vision with others.

My love of Nature, Colour, Form and Geometry is a constant inspiration which I hope to express in my new Figurative, Geometric and Abstract paintings. My practice of Mindfulness and an understanding of Nature, Intuition and an interest in Taoism is important to me. I hope to take the viewer towards what is called in Taoism ‘Figure Ground Meditation’ which simply put, means spending moments really looking, taking time and really ‘entering’ the work with Mindfulness and then, hopefully, the viewer can find that moment or moments of peace, calmness and meditation.

My new paintings here for the first time are a record of my ‘Lockdown’ journey of exploration which has given me the opportunity to explore bold colours, Geometry, OpArt and Abstract shapes and design. All, I hope giving harmonious happy and colourful works suitable for any environment and I hope creating a little magic.
