I present images which reflect my immediate surroundings – drawing sustenance from the environment in which I live: nature, household objects, people, dwellings, and the varied structures within them.

They are objects which we usually take for granted, but the extent to which we take these everyday objects for granted is the precise extent to which they govern and inform our lives – representing the logos of a culture and recording its life history.
 
I Like to generate and reflect enry in my work.  An every established by activating the canvas with chance markings – initially using the blank surface as a palette or space to jot down fragments and scraps of ideas, and then proceeding with the actual painting which ultimately becomes a dialogue between the canvas and me.

I play with different mediums, drew with different objects.  My approach is based on visual sensations, and markmaking is the most fundamental element in my art – a scratch of charcoal, a line of ink, a splash of colour, is how I express emotion, movement, and the essence of my theme – the subject matter merely the vehicle for the interaction of line, colour, form, mark, and texture.  My aim is not to copy my environment, but to re- interpret it.  The familiar images, mostly non-specific and anonymous, mirror certain human truths my capturing a gesture, a mood, an emotion – “I strive to express the essential character of things, allowing a different way of seeing… a condensation of sensations, so to speak.”
