Since 2002, I have combined the use of landscape to express ideas about time and place with concepts of examining and using motif in the landscape to prompt memory or feelings of a place.
I have started to take the motif out of its topographical landscape and combine it with colour, surface, texture and drawing, producing a personal account of place both real and imagined. This ambivalence and open-endedness invites the viewer to form their own personal associations. Ultimately, once the narrative has been confronted I want to be able to show the viewer paintings that are intended to be ‘beautiful’ with the subject matter always secondary in importance.
