“My oil paintings and works on paper show the mystery of landscapes that feature birds or animals, sometimes prominent, but at other times their fleeting beauty almost hidden.
Using multiple layers of thin pigment, I slowly build the texture and colour of the landscapes by allowing the paint to run across the canvas in different directions. I often paint the canvases flat, drip pigment from different heights, then lift and turn the works as the liquid paint forms unusual patterns and colour combinations.
My experimental process can be quite random but often produces unexpected results.
Some paintings can take months, with many glazes of thin pigment overlaying to produce unusual colours and textures. Although this technique is prone to mistakes and involves a strong element of chance, it can also produce highly distinctive works that are almost impossible to replicate.”
