Artist Statement:
Learning to paint is
inextricably linked to
learning to 'see'. I find
that life is made up of
moments that are often such a
'blink of the eye' time span
and yet such a moment can
alter forever the way we look
at the world. I see these as
the moments I want to capture
for ever in paint so that they
are there for everyone to see,
for my grandchildren to have a
glimpse of how life is for me.
It is not sufficient to just
record these moments but also
to give them a flavour. The
vehicle for this is the medium
chosen for the visual
expression. Often I am
working with watercolour and
the challenge with this medium
is to have it work in such a
way that it appears
effortless, that the image is
flowing onto the paper, the
pigment finding its own way to
its resting place.
I love colour for all its
sublety and vibrancy, all the
impossible combinations that
add a richness to our visual
world.
I enjoy design and how you can
alter people's perception of
an image by how and where you
place it.
Last but not least, line is
