About The Artwork

This is a large triptych, acrylic on linen canvas. Each painting in the triptych is 100 x 120 cm. Each of the three paintings is framed. I spent three weeks in the South of France in the summer of 2010, in Gruissan, close to the city of Narbonne. This series of works had its inception while I was staying by the etangs - salt water estuaries - which honeycomb that part of the coast. At full moon I couldn't sleep as the light was impossible to ignore, the tide unusually high and the sea rushed into the lagoon, bringing the waters very close. That night was perhaps the starting point of the series.

In my practice I work primarily as an abstract artist, exploring pure colour and form, the substance of paint and ground, and the tensions between the physical processes of making and the ‘life’ in the piece. I strive to create paintings with presence, paintings which have atmosphere and countenance. For the last few years I have been working in a beautiful light filled studio in Sussex, England exploring tools and processes which disguise the hand. I have found a greater freedom through this limitation and its challenges. I explore light and darkness and pure colour journeys, working with transparency and glazing to create vibrant surfaces. My paintings were selected for the Royal Watercolour Society's Open in 2024 and for the ING Discerning Eye exhibition at the Mall Galleries, London in 2015, 2016 & 2021. In 2017 my work was selected for the prestigious Creekside Open & the National Open Art Competition.
