View of Paris suburbs viewed from Sacre Coeur. A grey misty day made the view hazy and flattened. It struck me that the rooftops had an abstract quality and that if painted without detail or surface variation this would be enhanced. The result is a series of interlocking impasto geometric shapes in muted tones of blue, brown, grey and white. A palette of only three colours was used in the production of this piece. Blocks of colour have been carefully applied so that they abut each other without blending to create sharp contrasts. Oil paint on canvas over a shallow edged stretcher type frame. Dried for six months before varnishing.

I've explored many subjects over my thirty year practice but my current focus centres around multi-panelled pieces inspired by the mechanics of slide puzzles. In these palimpsest works, I apply multiple layers of images, marks and patterns so that they occupy the same composition but in different states, allowing images and motifs to undergo a transformative process between each layer. This method becomes a metaphor for exploring the intricacies of incompatibility or inevitability and can be disconcertingly jarring or consistently reaffirming dependent upon the work. The deliberate scattering and breaking of images, motifs and symbols allows me to explore many different ideas within a single compositional style and is, for me as an artist, a breakthrough in addressing the disorder and confusion I see in myself and the world around me. Alongside the multi-panelled pieces, I engage in the abstraction of complex subjects in my paintings. By deliberately introducing complexity and then allowing it to evolve into abstraction through the reductive process of painting, I seek to evoke pareidolic reactions from viewers — a reminder of our innate human tendency to find meaning in the seemingly abstract and unfamiliar.
