‘The work is grounded in the practice of revisiting familiar places, just ‘being’ in the landscape or using quick sketchbook scribbles as an open door, a beginning point.
Back in the studio the slow process begins of building something more, a back and forth conversation between artist, place and paint- specifically oil paint, with its visceral yet luminous qualities. The intention is that the work might go beyond mere topographical depiction, and find a deeper resonance.’
