Artist Statement
My process for painting and drawing has evolved over a period of
time. I use a painterly method of putting each brush stroke in the
right place with the appropriate value, colour, shape and direction.
I use a bold and vivid approach to colour leaving out what is
unnecessary providing the viewer with a strong impression making a
seemingly ordinary subject extraordinary.
