My work explores the power of images to relive past experiences, evoke emotions and arouse sensations. A dramatic sky or lush woodland acts as a portal to memories. Combinations of colours and shapes produce an immediate response and generate feelings of connection that can’t always be expressed in words – it just feels right.
I paint with acrylics on canvas and wood panels. My work evolves through experimentation with application and approaches that blend hyper-realism with abstracted elements. I strive to connect with nature through landscape painting focusing on light, movement, and mood. Skies are essential in setting the tone. Whether my work features trees, water, rocks, or wildlife, it is layered with cool and warm tones to produce depth and impact bringing nature to life.
I believe that idyllic images are snapshots in time that create a sense of balance and serenity, serving as a reminder to enjoy the beauty that nature presents.
