About the Artwork

I like to think of people as vessels of connection. Paintings focus on genuine, supportive relationships and the goodwill that holds people together. I combine real experienced moments and sensations with the imaginary, reframing life's journey to be hopeful and inclusive. Figures are abstracted to varying degrees, becoming a metaphor for the wider human condition. Boundaries are reduced, and permeable figures merge with each other and their distinct environment.

I have a consistently experimental, intuitive and playful approach, combining significant elements with fine layers of mixed water-media on panel. I use connection processes like merge, paste, share, and equalize. Symbolic relating colours parallel my theme. Horizontal marks suggest flux, bridging, growth, and expansion. Preferring an ambiguous narrative, I invite viewer completion.
