I started in familiar territory by creating paintings similar to those in my last body of work, before launching into unfamiliar territory. Over time, subtle differences were introduced that eventually wandered off into the seemingly unrelated, however there is a thread that runs through the show and ties all the works together: all of the paintings are of places where the land and water meet.

The same sub themes are still here; mainly the not-quite-real realism floating in a space of not a lot, slithers of lots of busy stuff surrounded by big areas of subtle nothingness and off the shoulder painterliness executed with a no.1(read small) brush, which, from a distance reads otherwise. People would have you believe that painting nothing is easy; don’t believe them. I like suggestion in my paintings, I’d rather not have to explain too much.
