Artist’s Statement

“Painting is an endlessly fascinating (and frustrating) way to untangle myself. I paint with curiosity; exploring emotion and life through colour and brushstroke, seeking to create compositions that simultaneously burst with joy while listening to the peaceful whispers of shadow. I look to nature for inspiration but look within for the work, the play, the love of it all. There’s a levity and liveliness to my paintings – a sense of wonder tinted with a sweep of humour. I admire the unusual, celebrate the weird, tread quietly and lightly in this world, and am leaving a bold, colourful trail of work behind.”

My landscape paintings are not about recreating a specific scene or depicting a particular place, but more a process of translating a feeling - capturing the energy and spirit of land and sky - then sharing what I see in my heart through colour and brushstroke.  Or something like that πŸ™‚
