Artist Statements
"Art at its best is made in the god-blessed present moment (that place where children play) and yet it has the potential to be fed by everything that has gone before. My studio work is informed by both outer and inner landscapes. Making it is a process of integrating past with present… of making what is invisible, visible. These works reflect a deep affection for the landscape in which I live, a landscape made richer by its man-made objects in their various states of decay. Does the muse take shelter in the chook shed? And what were those wings hovering over the water tank at dusk?"
