Artist Statement

I seek to capture the fleeting beauty of my surroundings especially the fantastic display of light on the environment. I am drawn to the intersection of sea, sky and land and I am always looking for subjects to paint, both to cement memories and share them with a wider audience.

I use a variety of traditional and modern mediums to capture colour and light in all their forms on all kinds of surfaces.

Landscapes are my faves and I enjoy the quiet beauty of painting en plein air, but you can also catch me in my walk-in closet studio working on my next painting!
