The most significant impact on my
painting career to date was moving to cornwall from London 7 years ago.
As history demonstrates this county has had a profound influence on artists
for hundreds of years.
Using an already developed 'painterly' approach focussing on process and
technique I was able to
develop a vocabulary of surfaces and marks in response to Cornwalls atmospheric
landscape.
Since this move my work has developed forward independantly of this landscape
influence and focuses
on Tuning the texture of the paint as the mark itself and the mark as
the subject. The most recent paintings
have become more simplistic in their composition, remaining true to an
established graphic division of panels
and subsections. Within this
framework I am able to experiment with and iluustrate more extreme variations
of
surfaces and marks.
