“I have always been interested in the balance of chaos and control, and painting gives me a way to embrace both of these states: a necessary loosening up and a considered adjustment and refinement. When I draw in open space, I am responding to the movement of the air and the sounds as much as the things I see. I am trying to capture the essence - a deep need and sense to be recognised in an expansive world. Recently I have been working with fluid layers, which need a physicality to make expressive marks and sometime gentle coaxing. It is a slow and contemplative process which involves listening to the paint for the moment when there is a distinctive element or sense of place. It can be a movement of water or overlapping memories. In this group of works, I am looking to distil the elements even more, finding that sense of arrival that completes each painting”.
