Hello!

In a world of anxiety and stress, painting the mountain landscape allows me to slow down, to observe, and reconnect with the natural environment.

My stress levels lower, the breathing slows, and I zone out of everyday life. I forget the time, ignore the music, and my coffee goes cold. Honey the dog has learnt to lie patiently till it gets dark and I finally look up!

Despite this, my painting technique is 'busy'. I use a palette knife, inspired by the late Nicholas Harding. My paint is thick, and texture is an element in the work.

I'm also a David Hockney fan, who inspired me to stay with representation as opposed to abstraction. And instilled the pleasure of 'seeing'.

I hope you enjoy my recent works. Most of these are on this page, so just scroll down.
