There are many beautiful 'accidental' compositions out there in the world. Purely unintentional and created simply by the inevitable degradation and damage that surfaces pick up in their environment. Sadly, other than by being photographed, these wonderful images are usually beyond any practical means of acquiring and hanging on a wall as art. How many times I've waited for the next underground train in London just so I can have a moment longer staring at the opposing wall where the large poster is missing from its position. This painting is a reimagining of an old fishing boat's hull. The many bumps and scrapes that are sustained always bring with them interesting attacks of colour and texture. Be it at the harbours of Marsaxlokk in Malta or West Bay near Bridport - I can spend hours walking along the quayside marvelling at the sights, smells and sounds; lost in the harbour.

I once scaled the walls of an abandoned section of the Cliveden estate, England. Having recently acquired a decent 35mm camera I was keen to document that hidden world beyond the high security fences. The place had fallen into an advanced state of disrepair in its eleven year abandonment and a definite feeling of other-worldliness pervaded the entire place. I guess I wasn’t as stealthy as I’d have liked for I was soon caught by a security guard - who, instead of reporting me to the police - kindly permitted me another hour of exploration in that strange and silent place where nature had triumphed in claiming back what mankind had put there. It was this singular event that has sustained itself in my memory as though it were the purest of chords struck. Half a lifetime on and with visits to cities such as Venice, and Valletta - with their myriad layers of deep history on view - this obsession with mysterious atmospheres, weathered texture and the more subtle beauty of nature has only grown further still. The compositions in many of my works are typically led by instinct and feeling. The end results rarely adhering to any initial preconception I may have had, with each piece seeming as though to develop a will of its own during the process. A process that brings with it a curious state in which I am transformed from humble applier of paint to enthralled voyeur.
