Artist Statement

As an artist I am compelled to paint. Creating art is intrinsic to my nature. Painting allows me to express myself creatively and at times has been my escape from the difficulties of life.

When I paint, I lose myself in the process of creation and all else is left behind for a while. I am thinking of what colours to use and where to put my next brush stroke to create a visually pleasing painting that the viewer can also get lost in.

My art is inspired by my travels around the world and by my love of nature. I paint mostly in oils on canvas from my own photographs. There is usually something in the photographs that I am compelled to capture in my own colourful and vibrant way.

My work is semi-representational in that it does not reproduce the photograph exactly but captures the feeling and beauty that inspired me to take the photo in the first place. My art captures fleeting moments of beauty in time for all to enjoy. I have taken thousands of photos but only a few are special enough to make it to the canvas.

I love to paint nature but painting is in my nature. The viewer can connect with nature and travel the world through my art.
