Painting reveals more than it records
Every painting begins with something returned to.
The subject provides the starting point.
The relationship between the painter and the subject shifts.
What remains is the painting.
The work is divided into two collections.
Place brings together landscapes shaped through observation and connection.
Presence brings together portraits, interiors and still life paintings that explore the changing relationship between experience and perception.
Explore below.
PLACE
Landscapes, architecture and interiors shaped by observation, connection and the identity of place.
Light, colour and composition reshape the experience of what is seen.
PRESENCE
Portraits, figures, interiors and still life shaped by relationships between people, objects and space.
Colour, composition and form transform the relationships between forms.
How the Work Begins
Some subjects refuse to let go. They may begin as a landscape, portrait or object.
Others begin with an observation or meditation.
Through structure and colour the subject is simplified and reconstructed.
The finished painting is not an imitation of the world or a departure from it.
It is what remains of the transformation.
COMMISIONS
Each commission begins with your vision.
The painting is approached as an original.
The conversation starts here.
ORIGINALS
Original paintings become available from time to time.
Each work stands on its own.
Availability is shown alongside the painting.
BEHIND THE WORK
The work begins before the work begins.
Painting begins with attention.
The rest follows.
