ABOUT

I’ve been playing with art forever. Brought up in the country, I learnt to appreciate the beauty of nature in all its forms.
In the pursuit of ‘artistic enlightenment’ I started life drawing about fifteen years ago. My intent, at the time was to learn to
draw accurately & perhaps classically, but instead I drifted toward emotion, mood & sensitivity. Rather than just drawing a likeness, I’m constantly looking for ways of capturing energy, emotion & feeling within the body & face. Strange as it may sound,sometimes I feel like I’m carving the figure or face into the paper.

As a natural progression I also got hooked on wood carving about 6 years ago. Its helped me now to satisfy that sculptural thinking. My intention is to show beauty & honesty in whatever I do. I hope you will see & feel that.
