VIEW IN MY ROOM
A boat is moored in early morning light in the lagoon Venice. A storm is brewing. The waves are ruffled and the sky darkens. A boat is tilted gently to one side by the wind. It is that magical time of day when though the skies are lightening, the lamps are still on. This lamp throws early morning gold onto the jetty and moorings. I painted this work as a tribute to the moorings of Venice. Spread throughout the lagoon in their twos and threes, they form an inseparable part of the beauty of the lagoon in early morning. They bear a silent witness to form and function. Ravaged as the wooden poles are by time and tide, Venetians manage to replace them regularly. Beneath the great buildings of the City, millions more such poles support the foundations of the most famous edifices in the world. In producing this work I was moved by the threatening winds of the early morning storm and the quiet serenity of the unacknowledged moorings that were sure to withstand it This work is on a solid canvas board of high quality which is fitted with a string hanging

I have been painting in oils since 1998. My favourite theme is that of cities,especially Venice, created with lively, loosely-drawn figures that express both the light and the life of the city. My work frequently crosses the border between impressionism and expressionism with emphasis on the transcendent beauty of light and the inner stillness of the moment captured.
