Artist Statement:
OVERVIEW
Over the past 20+ years, work has evolved and extended in several areas regarding subject matter, materials, skills and concepts used, hence the gallery listing accordingly, with a selection of works.
Present 'creative' work, in abstract conceptual realms, continues to 'fuse' or juggle all the different skill/medium areas of 2D & 3D, eg. combining imagery from: the outer/inner worlds, painting, photography, drawing, printing, ceramics, fibres etc. into a 'melting pot'.
Sometimes described as eclectic, the innovative, dynamic, and creative processes and forces are continually at play in my work. Inspirational sources come from many influences in tune with my spiritual and intuitive journeys: figurative work - exploring the human body form; the organic - use of my tropical environment & imagery; developing and exploring meanings for personal symbolic imagery.

Areas include - life drawing, painting, mixed media, collage, ceramic/sculpture, textiles (screen printing), banana fibre basketry, print making, photography.
Selected artworks are available for a Print on Demand (POD) service at http://artropica-innisfail-stud io-gallery.fineartamerica.com
Current work includes the exploration of stitches with paint, printing etc, digital ...
