My work is painterly, layered and abstract. I am inspired by Abstract Expressionism - particularly Mark Rothko’s thin, subtle dripping layers - inviting contemplation, introspection and to me, a sense of calm. My work often uses abstract mark making techniques to explore the dreamlike feelings evoked by snapshots of landscapes’ magic hour and water reflections. Their dreamlike and abstract nature suggesting they may be from a parallel universe or my own subconscious or memory. My work evolves through many layers. There are often stages where I feel quite unhappy with the overall look or composition of the piece and in turn, I am often working through my own personal thoughts and emotions as the piece progresses towards a resolution. My hope is always for my paintings to create a sense of calm and contemplation for the viewer.” "Choose Yourself, Baby Girl" is a message to both myself and my two young daughters.
