My Art ...

...deals with the sensuality and beauty of the human    figure.
...engages the viewer in what it is to be human.
...is the revelation of ideas through visual story telling.
...draws on the intimate; moments from the heart,    soul and mind.

...is about colour, perspective, light and dark, and the    language of icons and symbols.
...is about growing older, and the accumulation of    ideas and skills through time.
...is about imagination, interpretation and    craftsmanship.
