About my art
I find inspiration in the colours, patterns, textures, and shapes I observe in the environment wherever I am. When painting I like the immediacy of Acrylics, sometimes including mixed media. Drawing has always been a passion, and so I also enjoy pastels, drawing, and print media. Landscapes are predominantly my subject, but seascapes and portraiture are also favourites. I think of my art practice as a journey of exploration, both in the use of tools and techniques, and in critical perception.
