Galleries

I am a Contemporary Abstract and figurative Artist. Welcome to my online galleries.

In both my abstract and figurative work I paint the world that exists somewhere between memory and dream.

I love to express the mysterious and evocative qualities of nature and human experience with paint.

I hope you see something here that speaks to you and that you would love to see hanging in your home.

I paint in three distinct and yet related styles so scroll through to get an idea of the work you most like.

GALLERY 1 ABSTRACT LANDSCAPES

When I paint in an abstract style I am responding to the moment and inquiring into the here and now. Feelings are stirred, memories evoked imagination comes out to play. In my landscapes it’s not so much that I am painting nature but more that I am painting my experience of it. Sometimes I seek to capture the simplicity and sometimes the complexity in a painting. These landscapes are both serene and energizing.

GALLERY 2 ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONIST Non Representational.

Sometimes the work is purely gestural, intuitive and expressionistic. It focuses thematically on movement and emotions through colour, design, pattern, texture and line. I experiment with different ways to make abstract art as part of my creative practice. This works appeals to collectors who like bold statements that create a focal point for a room.

For those who love neutral colours and clean contemporary lines Textures and patterns will enliven the space yet keep things calm.

Gallery 3 Expressive Portraits

And now for something completely different, sometimes I mix it up and my canvas becomes a theatre and I paint imaginary characters inspired by the Human Comedy. This work is collected by people who love expressive and stylized portraiture that makes a bold statement.

  • True Believer
  • The Dancer
  • A Life in the Theatre
  • For Small Urban spaces one bold expressive painting gives a room a focal point.

Gallery 4: ABSTRACT FLORAL

In 2020 and 2021 during the lock-down I was amazed at how nature seemed to thrive without us. I went in a completely different creative direction.

The streets were quiet the air was clean, I painted big bold florals, as a way to honour the life-force and to remind myself we humans are not in charge. Nature is in charge.

GALLERY 5 Birds

And I am also very fond of painting ravens and herons and gulls, in an abstract style because I love the magical mystery of these winged ones. Birds have a strong symbolic presence for me and represent inner wisdom and deeper ways of knowing.
