statement

The inherent qualities of the oil paint, linen canvas and birch board are essential physical elements of my working practice.

As I methodically build up the surfaces I see my paintings as combining with, and developing from, these beautiful materials and their unpredictable properties.

My work is about the way we see contrasts of light and shadow at different moments in time. Our perception of what we see, or think we see, alters according to our mood, circumstance, situation and memories. The unanticipated nuances and volatilities of the oil paint itself might also reflect the unrelenting contradictions and harmonies of every day.
