110121 Painting

Sold at The Other Art Fair, London 1-4 July. Framed in a stained wood frame. A collector once wrote this about my work: "Your depiction of light is a vital part of your practice. Across all of your paintings, be they interior or exterior, urban or rural, light seems to shine across and out of the canvases". To me this is a wonderful explanation of my work. These paintings are the result of years and years of being aware of my surroundings and conscious of the way I am looking at the city around me. Some years ago I was a documentary videomaker and I got used to framing things all the time, even without a camera. I'd be walking around and suddenly see something and think: 'that would make a good shot'. Now, I see something and I think: “there’s a painting in that". The result I’m looking for is a unique stillness in the urban spaces and architecture. My paintings are like long exposure photographs, intensifying colours and removing traces of people and activity, allowing the observer to contemplate the interplay of colour, light and form in the physical environments we inhabit. Some viewers report an experience of calmness, of warmth, of serenity, whilst others feel a sense of unrest and anticipation.
