Artists Statement

I don’t take art that seriously, that’s no secret. I am not formally trained but as my intention is to communicate something , I take on art regardless . I’m kind of winging it, so my process is spontaneous. I enjoy vivid colours, bold marks and thick applications of paint. It’s a little unruly, and by nature the work is niche and i love that. It’s a connection thing. Making it all the more special when someone genuinely likes or connects to something you’ve made .

No, I am not a serious painter. I do not think art a super power. Yes, it can delight us visually or at best give us pause for thought, but in and of itself it changes nothing. Of course, I am only in awe of God, and this is why I find making art , so humbling. I get to experience my own weaknesses. So I don’t generate art or artists, even the very best painters in the end can only copy or interpret what already exists. So Art is for me an experience of being humbled . I love that.

My art is an experiment, it’s me trying to make something that someone else might enjoy or understand. Something that looks nice on walls.

I am not part of the art community , I notice not all artists are trying to do the same thing for the same reason with the same outcome in mind.

I do in many ways paint as a child, with joy, brevity and a sense of fun and discovery. I’m a free style artist so I never go to the canvas assured . Each time there’s an intention, then a dance or a struggle between the idea and the materials , until a result emerges that I am happy with. I hope to paint with my personality even though the style may be mercurial, each piece has potential to convey that intention at least.

I don’t sell originals, but am happy to offer prints of various sizes. Carry on through my site for details. So much art to choose from, if you should see something in mine that you would like to add to your own home.
