Artist's Statement

I am strongly influenced by the Environment around me. My inspiration for my Collage and Painting come from the Colours, Textures and Pattern I find in the Landscape around me, particularly in Flora. Through my awareness of my surroundings I explore life and regeneration through the changing colours and forms of the annual cycle of growth and it's mortality. In the minutae of Flower head, leaf, petal and seed head observed throughout the year I locate the textures, shape and colours that inspire me. My most recent series in Mixed Media is a selection of “Sunflowers”. There are 20 – 25 images in this series and still growing. This work sees further exploration with an ever increasing number of textures making use of the patterns in those textures. Layering the textures amongst the layers of paint increases the 3D effect of the 2D artwork. I now make my own colours using Pigments and Acrylic Binder. The colours achieved are much more luminous and deep lending themselves more to my style of work. Once I have completed my image an isolation coat is applied (sometimes 2 or 3 coats), followed by 2 – 3 coats of a removable UVLS protection Varnish. This ensures my work is archival.
