I work from the studio each day, I paint, I draw, I print, I make. No two days are the same; there is never an end game to a particular day, one day rolls into another. Subject tends to be landscape driven, a recurring theme is one of containment, referencing different forms of structure, either natural or man-made. I work on multiple pieces at any one time, some are small, and some are larger. Starting points vary, depending upon the success of the previous day. Mark making is paramount, serendipity plays its role, informing as to which direction any particular work follows. Certain pieces will move closer towards completion, while others will be over painted allowing the process to start again. I enjoy the paring of a painterly mark with a hard graphic line, forever seeking an affinity between the two. A personal reflective work emerges, referencing solitude, protection and shelter.
