Statement

My paintings are a subconscious and conscious introspective response exploring the complex relationship between human existence and the natural world.Producing abstract and imagined images I work primarily with acrylic paint and mixed medium on panel board layering and deconstructing with brushes, mud knifes, squeegees and various miscellaneous tools/objects.I enjoy experimenting across traditional media developing several collections in parallel. Responding to the relationship between the materials used and the process initiated produce the work.
Each painting is a new adventure with color, form and texture.
