ABOUT THE ARTWORK:
My paintings aim to capture, create and express what it is like to be in the landscape — to be part of it, to belong, to feel it, to sense it — capturing movements, sounds and fragrance. My landscapes are universal each incorporates the many places I lived in, locations, times and feelings, creating places where I belong.
