My creative process has always revolved around the experience of the subject, particularly focusing on a specific place. It extends beyond the physical aspects to encompass its history, its people, and the imprints they leave on the landscape. The process typically commences with drawing, predominantly in black and white. This initial phase allows me to delineate a spectrum of shapes observed in the landscapes.
I look for patterns and rhythms normally created by fences, paths and roads. Having trained as a printmaker my natural bent is towards a very graphical approach but as a painter I need a more expressive use of paint. Therefore, in any collection of mine you will see both aspects.
