ARTIST STATEMENT I explore the canvas with paint and sponges, dyes and brushes : looking past the obvious, discovering beauty in unfamiliar places. Immersed in the boundaries of the canvas I begin to create a world within worlds. There is no notion of beginning or end: just the story in transition that gradually unfolds in time. There are gates that open with light brush marks and delicacy: a revelation. Heavy laden sponges of paint open portals of darkness that construct patterns: a matrix. Texture shapes forms and the narrative begins…. I paint in layers like a palimpsest. The first layer is the most superficial, literal interpretation : the final image. Hiding just beneath, the symbolic or allegorical second layer : look closely and you will see.
