Contemporary artist inspired by landscape…

exploring layers in the landscape and in paint, especially areas where the margins between land, sky, and sea, shift and merge and change.

I’ve been enjoying working on some large abstracts on 1 metre square canvases.

This one is about a hidden pool on a regular walk, not far actually from a well known spot, but a bit tucked away, so it’s always peaceful, even on busy days. The pool is darkly enclosed and mysterious, with deep water, patterned with light and shade.
