From my Lines and Boundaries series, 'ambit' means bounds, limits or scope and is applied here through abstraction to the sphere of human experience. I chose acrylic for the medium because of its clarity and consistency over time and the versatility of creating a wet-on-wet shimmering background with hard-edge geometric shapes that float above it in the foreground. Drawing on my appreciation for printmaking techniques, a print-like quality is incorporated into the images with the impression of signing '1/2' and '2/2' in the panels' bottom right and top left corners. The selected colours are spring green, pink and silver acrylic ink within the intersecting circles. The painting is finished and preserved with a combination of two archival UV varnishes matt and glossy for varying optical effects. This is a two-panel work that can be displayed together (as in the main picture) or split and offset as two separate but related works (see additional images). Linen panels are more durable than paper and can be framed in various ways, from traditional flat to floating box frames. A collector, therefore, has a variety of options and control over the display at their disposal.

Art is a place I can be free from the constraints of everyday life and enter a world of the imagination. Dreams and the subconscious provide a deep well of ideas, with the subjects of time, childhood, nature and mortality echoing throughout my work. Over the years, there have been several different thematic periods to my output, with a variety of media chosen according to my aims and interests at that time. In Vincent Dreams of Sunflowers, for instance, I favoured the delicacy of pen and watercolour to create detailed imagery rich in symbolism. By contrast, in a recent series of oil pastel and acrylic paintings, I employed bold colours and deliberate clean lines to convey meaning through shape and form. The hawk-like figure that occurs early on in my work reappears again, as do several familiar motifs including eyes and masks, reflecting my fascination with the seen and unseen. Of late – and with the discovery that my great-grandfather was a lithographic artist – I have become increasingly drawn to the process of printmaking. Preferring the starkly unadorned images achievable through relief printing techniques, I have expanded my portfolio to include a number of original linocuts. An admirer of visionary artist William Blake, my painting and poetry often go hand in hand, their symbiotic relationship resulting in a number of combined projects that can stand together or alone. I am also an original member of Blake for Artists, which is a peer-led learning group that meets every Monday evening on Zoom to discuss the works of William Blake, who lived for a time in Felpham, West Sussex. Ultimately, to me the blank canvas – like the empty page – represents endless possibilities for creation; here I can express and share alternative perceptions of life through visions, dark or dream-like, playful or thoughtful.
