"My paintings represent my personal response to the environment.
My ideas are not whole impressions but fragments of what fascinates me and are the seeds
from which my works begin to develop. As a result, although they undoubtedly have roots in
my daily life, they are a good deal removed from reality. Florals, landscapes and people
continually captivate me. The medium and support of my expression vary depending on a
combination of my mood and the mood the subject creates in and of itself within me. They
both range from soft transparent watercolours to vibrant mixed media on paper; from gentle
brush strokes and texture on masonite to bold brush sweeps on canvas." |
