| 'With my art I like to move, travel and make pathways, using a framework
of landscape explorations, these are often linked to the past. Ancient places interest me. Looking at great art interests me.
Drawing directly from nature, extracting motifs, the creative process brings to the surface old ideas and new. These thematic explorations work as a collection of studio based paintings, using collage pieces I have found, painted over with oil, and drawn into with charcoal. It is the process of doing/creating that drives my work. It is essential to experience the battle
of painting, in order to arrive at the finished piece containing a sensation
of reality.'
