artist statement
Like an anonymous voyeur through a camera lens, I am quietly inspired by the simplicity and serenity of the subjects I choose to render. I am drawn to an object or scene for it’s complex colour, positioning and light. I seek a balance of boldness and subtlety when combining intense brush strokes with a vibrant palette.
