Artist Statement
These pieces are inspired by the brooding forms that take shape in the sky – this poetry, rhythm and drama that seems to contract itself, via cloud formations, light, air and colour. Setting the representational against the abstract, I paint these elements that can’t be held or grasped. The environment in my paintings is restless and palpitating, not needing to be understood but felt.
