My work evolves, ebbs and flows, sometimes doubling back for another look. There are changes of direction, quirks, varying energies and interests which are part of me; my own truth shaped by my own unique history. I have had to learn to accept these to be authentic and to truly embrace creativity.

​

Subject matter is shaped by these changing currents. A line or a shape whether it be abstract, geometric or more representational are grasped in the moment - a building, a pear, a vessel, a plant, a circle; all are documented as things of interest and curiosity. Mark making and colour are major elements - in paint, charcoal, print and collage. Ultimately I hope that my work finds an unspoken or unconscious empathy with the viewer.
