I am now returning to a productive practice exploring my fascination with human memory, its traces and triggers and my interaction with place and space through drawing, print and paint. My work explores aspects of memory and its relationship to physical location. It hints at remembered places but has no real sense of exact location and no indication of time affording opportunity for the viewer to invoke their own memories and associations. 

My paintings and drawings emerge from a process of repeated layering and obfuscation and are a combination of conscious and unconscious thoughts, planned and unplanned actions, they are intangible propositions given surface by paint.

As the poet Wordsworth said, there are in our existence spots of time that with pre-eminence retain a renovating virtue. I hope through my paintings that these spots of time, that prioritise emotion over detailed representation, resonate with the viewer offering a brief moment of respite from our fast paced digital world, while at the same time showing an appreciation of nature, the elements and the connection between these, our lives and locale.
