I create drawings and paintings which respond to incidental moments of light in the landscape. I explore themes of impermanence and a liminal sense of place and identity

My work explores ideas of impermanence through the ephemeral nature of light and movement, and has an on-going concern with the relationship between matter and light. 

My  working process involves initiating  a body of work by walking and drawing. The drawings often reference an ambiguous figure moving through the landscape , whereas, in contrast, the oil paintings focus on a still horizon at the end of my walk and the sense of emptiness and mood.

Striving for a sense of something tangible within the intangible, I invite the viewer to find a still centre and quiet psychological territory which borders the threshold between nostalgic association and something unknown.
