The work in this gallery is acrylic based. The paintings are shown in reverse chronological order – the most recent paintings are at the top of each section. There are collections of realist and abstract works. I like both – I paint both. Many of these paintings are available for sale. Please contact me for information.
“Focused Looking & Translation” I enjoy really looking. The act is relaxing. The translation of what I’m studying helps to push my perception and discover more that the details.

“Land and Sky” This series of paintings started with a painting I dreamt I painted. I’ve developed the initial concept further by exploring structure, colour and mood. The dreamt paintings rarely give clues to their origins – Land and Sky 1 is an exception. I’ve always been interested in geologic formations and how the weather creates and alters them over time and this is the basis of the “Land and Sky” series.
