I have a long history of exploring the endless possibilities of ‘drawing’ . . . and with this work I have seen the expressive potential in another artists’ studio interior, with pens, pencils, and pastels dynamically recreated, spontaneously intertwined with shades of colour . . . reforming the structures and objects, spaces and depths of atmosphere without loosing the studios’ original reality – but transforming it through my own explorative vision of ‘drawing’, that leaves room for the viewers exploration and imagination.
My paintings, drawings and sculpture are a positive expression of our world in form and colour, motion and character, radiance, and depth, with the energies of universal inspiration.
