ARTIST’S STATEMENT

In creating art I seek out the shapes, patterns, lines, colours, values, textures and forms that fascinate me. Although my art is representational, my intention is more to celebrate the elements of two dimensional design than to create a photographic representation of what I see.

I paint on location because I value the direct interaction between seeing and painting. When I work in the studio I work from paintings and photographs done on location so I can maintain my relationship with the subject There is a magical relationship between the subject, the eye, the hand, and the paper. I hope that when people see my painting they become part of that relationship. It is an expression of my belief that we are all One, all interconnected by the Spirit of Life.
