"I try to create beautiful spaces.
I see my paintings existing like music or poetry. There is not a clear narrative in the paintings, instead they are visual experiences to be felt on an emotional level. I believe in the power of ART to lift and transcend. Using an abstract language of mark making that is both personal and universal.
There is a primitive sensitivity involved in mark making, and what these marks communicate to us. Sadness happiness joy frivolity grief. Or maybe a humanity.
I believe that visual language has a potent power, like music or literature. And it has the power to lift, communicate and transform.
An imaginary floating world is created with hidden spaces, things half-shown and suggested. Like Rorschach inkblots, the viewer is invited to find and interpret their own symbols in the ambiguous visual field. Clouds, reflections, elements of landscape and the coast have all been observed.
Using pattern and mark to create rhythm, I use a range of materials; paint, pencil, fabric, collage, metallics, and build up my paintings in a very organic way. I overlay layers of paint, mark and collage to build up the pictorial space. This creates glimpses, hidden spaces, things half_ shown, suggested. I use delicate layers of texture, drawing and colour to create an ambiguous space. The image is then worked and re_worked until the image is “found”. Only when a balance and integration is achieved I feel that the painting is finished.
I like to think of them as “visual poems”. This sensual world is one to be absorbed, felt, and enjoyed.
