Artist Statement

Painting has always been an important part of my life. Over time, my work has evolved and includes both representational watercolours and large abstract acrylics. I continue to enjoy the immediacy of water media as well as the playfulness of collage and mixed media experimentation.

Nature and travel continue to evoke and provide inspiration. In many ways, painting is a visual journal of thoughts and responses to a scene, to an idea, to an event. The challenge is how to capture the atmosphere, the particular light or sound of that day.

​i am always experimenting. This year my focus has been much more on human figure and portraits
