About The Artwork
After a trip to Italy and Sicily I became consumed with volcanos and interested in the idea of the looming demise of life due to an eruption. People and creatures live in the shadows of this impending doom everyday- what does that feel like. I like the idea of a large group of dogs, having fun frolicking because humans are good with that, until they are not, when it gets a bit frightening. All these elements feed my love of chaos, potential destruction and the frivolity of humans. I use a fairly tradition style of painting because what interests me really is the imagery. Have I conveyed what I was after. Still harmony and colour are considered and I try to depict my ideas forthrightly. I hope people with see the humour but also come away slightly concerned/queasy as a result of taking in the content and intention.

While my painting is typically representational – some pieces move into abstraction. I usually pursue a particular theme for several years running or until the question/investigation has run its course. Currently I'm focused on dogs and fish. My background in sculpture informs the way I think about constructing or building a painting- placing figures together in postures of my choosing. I seek the sweet spot where there is tension, humour and maybe a touch of fear present in the work. Member Artists' Network, Toronto
