Colour is the constant thread that runs through my artistic practices even though stylistically I work in different ways.
My most recent paintings have been driven by an interest in fragmentation. The resultant works are semi-abstract illusional forms.
Abstracts derived from nature form the touchstone for my examination of pure colour in a freer style.
My interest in 20th century artists has led me to experiment occasionally with the practice of appropriation, especially with the works of Matisse, Turner and Piper.

My studio is open during June as part of the South East Open Studios scheme. for more information, visit www.southeastopenstudios.org.uk
