Welcome
Although my paintings are about the elusive and ethereal, they sometimes allow the viewer to catch a glimpse of something familiar, before it disappears again.
The layering process of opaque and translucent paint reflects this theme by revealing and concealing ambiguous shapes and by allowing the bright colours to come through the layers of more sombre colours, which is reminiscent of looking through dark water.
Whilst working on many pieces simultaneously, I meander through paint, thinking, exploring, searching for the sublime.
