About The Artwork

I used to work non-figuratively and continue to admire several abstract painters, particularly Sean Scully, Callum Innes and John Hoyland. My intention was to deal with perceived form whilst trying to keep some of the spirit of abstract painting. Small boxes provided a way in and formed the starting point for an ongoing series of works. In this, the red box sits centrally on a complimentarily coloured ground seen from an aerial perspective, which helps flatten the image. The reflective foil is painted representationally and helps connect the perceived to the “abstract” though in truth, all parts of this were observed from reality; the balance of the two realms is beautifully evident in the priests hats and spaces in Piero Della Francesca’s Exaltation of the Holy Cross at Arezzo.

I work in the still life painting tradition from brief, often precarious, arrangements of small, neutral or insignificant subject matter. I use observation, intuition, relationship, scale and metaphor to create a sense of clarity and space and give form to my sensibility. I regard form as concentrated space, process and phenomena and strive to create visual meditations that are layered, poetic and stop time. I draw on my interests outside art for inspiration - mainly music, yoga, meditation and Eastern thought, mainly Tao and Zen. I am particularly drawn to the increasing connections between Buddhist related thought and aspects of contemporary science, particularly physics and neuropsychology. I have also been very influenced by Iain McGilchrist's groundbreaking book "The Master and his Emissary", a Rosetta stone that connects and explains the two brain hemispheres, "the two cultures" and the philosophies of East and West. It reveals much of arts response to 20th/21st century Western society to be in fact, like its subject, Cartesian and dualistic. Please look at my blog for more written thoughts and observations.
