SELECTED WORKS
DREAM WALKS
'Dream Walks' is a collection of landscapes which often depict figures journeying through them. Sometimes their journey is bathed in sunlight and accompanied by local wildlife, other moments are lonely, treacherous and bleak. But despite the changing moods and seasons these figures are full of fear and hope as they head towards the unknown, grounding themselves in the beauty of the natural environment that surrounds and envelopes them.
HEART IN A JAR
Kaleidoscopic in its emotional range, ‘Heart in a Jar’ is an architectural exploration of the inner and outer self. Each painting examines interior and exterior spaces which are contained and re-contained before bursting open, unleashing an outpour of what might be love or grief, anxiety or pain. Some celebratory, others more sinister, each canvas constructs and demarcates its very own world. The glass bottles and vases which become a motif running through the collection could well be windows to the soul, or display cases, freezing a more macabre scene in time, suspending it in negative space.
MAGICAL GARDEN
The Magical Garden Series is inspired by the peaceful sanctuary of gardens. Havens for wildlife and people alike, the bursting blooms, the sound of babbling water and the gentle rustle of a breeze through the trees gives you a moment to slow your pace. These paintings explore nature's beauty in all its splendour, so take a moment and stop to smell the flowers.
