INSPIRATION COMES FROM EVERYWHERE AND EVERYTHING. I FIND THAT I AM GENERALLY INFLUENCED BY THE EVERYDAY WORLD AROUND ME BUT EVEN MORE SO FROM UNDERNEATH THAT PHYSICAL REALM. THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OF MY ART IS TO CREATE IMAGERY THAT IS AESTHETICALLY IMPACTFUL AND LEAVES THE VIEWER WITH BOTH A SENSE OF INTEREST AND AN ONGOING EXPERIENCE OF VISUAL DISCOVERY.

MY APPROACH TO PAINTING HAS ALWAYS BEEN FOCUSED ON PROCESS RATHER THAN THE REPRESENTATION OF SUBJECT MATTER. I DRAW MY CREATIVITY FROM MY IMAGINATION AND TRY TO DENY ANY FORM OF VISUAL FAMILIARITY SO AS TO PROVIDE THE VIEWER WITH A UNIQUE VISUAL EXPERIENCE. WHETHER THIS CAN BE ACCOMPLISH OR NOT IS ALWAYS A MATTER OF SUBJECTIVITY AND ULTIMATELY IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER.

THE PROCESS OF APPLYING PAINT TO SURFACE OR PEN TO TABLET GIVES ME AN ENDLESS FEELING OF ENJOYMENT AND SATISFACTION. MY LIFE AS AN ARTIST IS AN ONGOING PURSUIT OF AN INDESCRIBABLE CREATIVE JOURNEY WHICH I KNOW WILL CONTINUE TO REVEAL ITSELF, ONE PIECE AT A TIME, THROUGH HARD WORK AND PERSEVERANCE.

THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, I HAVE DEVELOPED A FASCINATION FOR SCIENCE AND COSMOLOGY. WHILE MY ARTWORK IS NOT INTENTIONALLY CREATED WITH THIS SUBJECT MATTER IN MIND, EACH NEW PIECE OF WORK SEEMS TO IMPLY THESE INTERESTS THROUGH MY USE OF SHAPE, COLOUR, COMPOSITION AND TEXTURE. AS SCIENCE IS A NEVER-ENDING PURSUIT OF KNOWLEDGE, ART IS A NEVER-ENDING PURSUIT OF EXPRESSION.
