ARTISTS STATEMENT:

My passions is painting on country in remote places. There I use my emotional response to the land using colour, texture and movement with watercolour paint in a spontaneous style. My interest is also in researching the past history of this place. My work explores the duality of nature’s vastness and microcosms, revealing an essence of place that is tangible.
