About The Artwork

This is the first of a series of unconnected abstract works created Oct-Dec. 2014. Materials used, include digital art software leading to / followed by the addition of black ink, oil pastel, natural vegetable pigment (treated like water colour. The work utilises controlled and, chance methods in order to create a quasi balanced composition. Although the surface is busy with lots of motion, the intention is the creation of a sense of calm, rather than disorder. Being a music composer my aural imagination feeds directly into my visual. Balanced disorder perhaps. I am fascinated by the effects created by the combination of different materials. I make use of traditional art materials and try to find my own materials from the environment. In fact, some of my works use only found materials from the surrounding environment.

I am a music composer and artist living and working in Madeira Portugal. Both my musical and visual works range from traditional to experimental forms. I would describe myself as an eclectic artist. As an artist after gaining A levels in Practical Art and Art History at school I continued my studies at Dartington College in Devon on the Preparatory Art Course. I then trained as a teacher specialising in Music and Art at Primary School level at Lady Spencer Churchill College (Oxford Polytechnic). After studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London I taught in various schools, including Art at a Special School in Reading, Berkshire (UK). I currently teach in an Arts School in Funchal Madeira. My art work spans different mediums: drawing, painting, collage, digital imaging, photography. These mediums are not treated in isolation, rather I am interested in combining several of these when creating a new work. Also, more broadly, my art and music aesthetics interact, in other words there are various connections in terms of the way I create ideas / concepts / structures. I will be adding to and improving the information in this profile, so please be patient.
