Uberty, an abundance of fertile growth at the end of Summer. Copious grasses, flowers & seed heads creating fruitfulness for the following year, whilst providing a glorious spectacle of plant in the golden sunlight. This big loose canvas was created in multiple laers over the course of a week. Each layer was in a way a painting in itself if i had chosen to stop at that point, much like a garden with depth of growth & variety. during a week of freezing rain & howling winds making the outdoors grey & unfriendly, I lost myself in memories of the places I love most. The meditative process behind the creation of this painting took my mind languid days of sunshine, the fragrance of the meadow warm on the breeze. As the bright colours of high summer fade to gold, umbers & browns in the layered seed heads of Phlomis. while Gaura spread their spinly fronds amongst the grasses with delicate points of white & pink tiny blooms. Winter can be hard, lockdown even more so & as the weeks roll on without the ability to roam freely through gardens & countryside bringing the freedom of the outdoors in becomes more vital. the free wildness of these meadow gardens remind me that nurturing myself, being grateful for what I have & chering the good things about this time, sows the seeds of fruitfulness & abundance for the future. if I can find joy at the hardest of times then the cherished freedoms we are missing will be even more amazing appreciated when we reclaim them Uberty is a big statement piece, which brings warmth, happiness & a feeling of losing oneself in its wild growth to a room.

The power of Nature & taking time to observe its minute details & abundance has incredible effects on well-being. This is the primary inspiration for my work. Exploring the way our ancient genetic connection to the seasons, flora & colours in Nature influences how we feel is the foundation behind the big paintings of flowers, meadows & natural landscapes I create. I paint what I need, not what I feel. Whatever is happening in life, taking the time to observe Nature in quiet contemplation soothes my mind mind & eases my body. You will most often find me with a sketchbook or camera, wandering through gardens, sitting in wild meadows or with my head in a hedgerow, fascinated by those little things we usually walk past. The play of dappled light through meadow grasses, the glint of a dew drop on a petal, these things fill me with wonder & galvanise me to explore them on my canvas. These quiet moments translate into the big evocative paintings I create, which celebrate the simple wonder of the world around me. Somehow, immersing myself in the creative process results in answers to life's puzzles revealing themselves. I find myself relaxing, feeling joy & pain easing. I find it incredibly humbling that many of my collectors say that my work brings them the same sense of well-being. Each painting carries its own story, an opportunity to ponder & feel uplifted. The effect is so powerful that I literally get ill if I don't paint for any prolonged period of time. For me, the painting process is my consuming passion & I feel that my purpose in life is to share it.A few years ago I discovered that there is now scientific evidence that images of the natural world produce endorphins, serotonin & make you feel good. The term for this effect is 'Biophylia". Another deep motivation around my work is that bringing attention to these simple things may promote looking at things in a new way. Noticing, caring, nurturing & hopefully helping our wild world in its struggles. Whether it be to plant a tree, a small patch of meadow or simply to not pull out that brave Dandelion which has survived against all odds between the paving stones.
