My work consists of a mixture of painting and 3D work all inspired by my love of the sea. I find much inspiration in the Zen aesthetic of Wabi Sabi; the constantly changing landscape and the decaying impermanence of objects. I look for the beauty in peeling paint and rusty metal. Many different media are used in my paintings. Layers are built upon layers, using tissue, newsprint, ink, paint and pencil, all adding depth to the piece. Words and calligraphy also play an important role, developing a diary as I work. I hold painting workshops,Expressive painting and Mixed media,come along and unlock the hidden creative!

Sometimes here
it’s hard to tell
the sound of the wind
from the sound of the waves
or the sound of the waves
from the sound of the rain
or the sound of the wind
and the waves and the rain
from the sound of my breath.

"I like to think of myself--as an artist--as being in a nondescript swamp, up to my knees in mire, painting the vital beauty I see there, in my own way, not caring a damn about tradition, or anyone's opinion."
Charles Burchfield, February 8, 1938
