COLOUR OUTDOORS
I'm drawn repeatedly to the kinetic canvas of coast, forest, mountains, sea, and sky as the starting point for my work. I need to be there, to soak up all the sensations of a moment, to step outside of clock time and feel at one with the forces of nature.
I love the way colour looks in these wild outdoor spaces — vivid, vibrant, dazzling, and ever-changing through the shifting patterns of sunlight and shade. As Delvaux said, "I have always wanted my colours to sing!"
I mostly paint using chalk pastels on wood, rock, sand, and even snow, or I place pre-painted shapes and/or totems into arrangements that flow harmoniously with the energy of the landscape. The images and symbols I create act as a point of entrance for my journey inwards... a catalyst for my sense of connection with the earth and universe.
My photographic images are available in custom-sized canvas prints. Please get in touch for details.
