I paint mainly
representational landscape and figure work. I strive to tell a story
whilst emphasising light and colour in my own style.
I am influenced
by Monet, Van Gogh, Eric Gill, Matisse and Picasso. I strive towards a
graphic or impressionistic rendering, though return often to
representational work.
I dislike the lack of drawing and
observational skills to be seen in so much contemporary 'conceptual' art
which I see as less art, more craft. Artists such as Hockney and Hopper
in the USA are examples of good modern representationalism with
drafting and painting skills.
Marija Posso, curator and publicist
based in New York City says: "I really enjoy your art, especially the
visceral, landscape paintings. Each piece conveys a sense of endless
wonder and imagination. Your stylistic approach reminds me of
reflections, memories and dreams combined with reality. I find these
works to be thoughtful, moving, and I'd like to know more about them."
