ARTIST BIO

ARTIST\'S STATEMENT
I am always creating something and like most artists I find that the act of creating is a wonderful end in itself. To this end, I find my daily practise of Transcendental Meditation keeps the ideas fresh and flowing.
I enjoy exploring figurative and landscape painting, using a wide variety of surfaces and media.Generally I like to explore what lies below the surface of life, the motivations that propel people on in their lives or the emotions and the world of imagination that the landscape around us evokes.
