Profile:

I have a strong bias towards tactile effects and a sensuous expression where visual dynamics and structure are being explored.

Some of my watercolours are painted with a surfeit of water. At other times I prepare my paper in an unusual way using a "half ground" which makes a unique surface to work on. It is highly textured, absorbent and unpredictable and it enables me to follow myfeelings and paint from memory rather than dictating what I am going to paint. The results are some very subtle passages of rock face, shapes and geological forms. This instinctive approach gives my work a feeling of a visual experience.

For my acrylic work I prepare a background from different types of paper including newsprint to give me a messy surface to work against. From this mess I establish order and meaning. My subject matter is architecture, buildings, townscapes and flowers using vibrant colours.

In this I am influenced by the Fauves and Expressionists like Kandinsky and Nolde
