Artist information:
My work is inspired by my love of the Chilterns and many of my paintings are of local rural scenes; my father was an agricultural expert and I have many happy memories of visiting the countryside with him. I paint what I see and love around me and what I have a connection with. It might be something that has caught my eye in the landscape or an image that has triggered a train of thought, although once I start to paint, I am not really looking at anything; what I am painting is coming from my imagination. I am not interested in detail or accurate representation of my subject, more in conveying what I feel; as people, we don’t see in one colour or in a single frame like a photographic image; what we see around us is filtered and coloured by past emotions and experiences.

My painting style is spontaneous and highlights intense colour and energy. I love the interplay between colour and sound and how colour can trigger emotion and sensations that chime with us like musical notes. My paintings are generally completed in one sitting “alla prima” in a wave of colour and sensation.
