Artist Statement
"Art gives me a way to express my interpretation of the world around me. This world, and all it contains, provide me with sources of inspiration and creative direction. I paint in a representational style, breaking down a scene and exploring the patterns of light, shadow, colour and texture. I am intrigued by the relationships of these elements and how they create a unique experience of a place and time. By painting the elements that contribute to the character of the subject, I am able to capture my impressions of the scene."
