My practice is centred on drawing and painting. I have recently rejected photography, print, digital imaging because rather than being driven by the technology I want my work to be an expression of my own intent driven by intellect, creativity, emotion and expression.
I draw no distinction between abstract and figuration because the only reality lies in the brush stroke or mark.
I don’t try to make sense of the world. By painting I might analyse a subject or situation and rationalise something that may have remained hidden. I am happy for the viewer to make up their own mind about what is going on in my paintings, as the meaning is never closed or resolved.
I want my art to draw the viewer in and not to alienate. I will regard it as being successful if it encourages questions.
I believe that painting still has an important role to play in commenting on the nature of the world outside the studio.
