Presentation

Artist Statement:

I was born in London, England in 1965 and currently live on Vancouver Island in BC, Canada. A creative director by trade, I was schooled at York University where I received a BFA with Honours. Influenced by Turner, Rothko, Hitchens, Anselm Kiefer and Takao Tanabe, I am interested in investigating the human experience using landscape as a metaphor.

I have been pondering the 'Current Landscape'… perspectives of society at this moment in time. In trying to resolve my own isolation I find my paintings try to dialogue between place and being. I have a feeling that something greater lies beyond by the sureness of the horizon and the vastness of the sea and sky. A constance in nature that connects us all.

Education:

BFA with Honours, Fine Arts - York University, Toronto, Ontario.
