About The Artwork
"Keeping Afloat" was inspired by the horizon across the Gulf of Mexico in Galveston, Texas. The view of tankers and oil rigs, waiting, to come to shore, or go out to sea, for the end of the pandemic. The tankers and rigs are close enough to see, but too far away to touch, creating distance that we have all experienced recently, this is represented by the handwriting, words across the waves. This piece is acrylic and mixed media with silve leaf and graphite on canvas. The silver leaf represents hope and optimism, a silver lining so to speak.

My work is about connection across distance, this is portrayed in my paintings as vast open spaces, with little interruption, like a clearing between these different planes. This space relates to the distance of time as well as the physical distance. I strive to create an atmosphere of calmness and serenity in my work, I’d like to think that people could dive into my paintings and lose them selves there for a while. Inspirations include Joan Eardley, Mark Rothko and Friedensreich Hundertwasser. My figurative work is mainly academic, line, shape, tone, as well as being a meditative practice where I can lose myself. Inspirations include Gustav Klimt and Egon Scheile.
