Regardless of my medium I seek to capture the energies of a person, place or thing through colour, line and texture. I steal silhouettes, movements and hues that trigger my emotional memory associated with my subject, place or moment so that even when they are free of figures and representation they carry their nostalgic essence. 

In my representational work I experiment with metaphors and archetypes that resonate familiarity and understanding. Each character embodies a fear, desire, idea or identifier that I am personally exploring, sometimes seriously, sometimes playfully. 

I want to create artwork that connects people through shared experiences, to encourage compassion and harmony on any scale.
