I am interested in natural energy sources and in demonstrating the importance of considering what we might do after the current energy sources are depleted.

My dream is to see how we can ensure that we leave a safe and healthy future environment for our children and grandchildren.

I am working to create from natural resources, their connection with earths gravity, powerful and engaging images and life experience all united by a shared critical interest in the writings of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. A Thousand Plateaus

I create my paintings from studio practice directly from the pallet, in brilliant colours and physical expressions, searching for consistency of folding and unfolding strata reflecting the geophysical nature of the topic.

I hope through my work to draw attention to the importance of the sustainable energy crisis and to engage the general public in the importance of investing in sustainable energy sources for the future - now.
