The inspiration for my work is all around us, the light, mood and atmosphere of the landscape.

Music is also another great inspirer, from Bach to Hendrix, all creating a mood that is expressed through my work.

A reflection in water, a shaft of light, how I am feeling at a particular moment are translated through colour and movement onto the canvas.

In some of my work there is a serene calm in others a threatening storm, these are drawn from what I have seen or emotions I have experienced,
never knowing which direction the work will take until pencil connects with paper or brush hits the canvas.
