My art expresses a relationship between weightlessness and intensity; the painting reflects fleeting pleasurable feelings which are never wholly contained. So they are encased in an improvised structure that is part of the work rather than a purely practical method of hanging and preservation.
The marks, shapes and colours are an exploration into a mythology of colour presenting an attractive and passive invitation, not unlike a flower. My works are vibrant entities influenced by the constant sensory bombardment of modern life, natural, built and felt. Stripping context and figuration to create a tangible real world object; they leave behind external reference in favour of an aesthetic independence. They are pendants for your thoughts, projections, subjects and figurations – and convent the lightness and joy of the act of creating.
