It is my desire to employ different materials, scale and
processes in my work and are the evidence of an artist
always taking risks searching for that connection ,
that one "true" moment between myself , subject and
you the viewer.
The openness , immediacy and sensitivity of my hand
while simultaneously rendering a likeness creates
complex fluid personages that reflect the emotional
and psychological complexity common to each of us,
flawed, compassionate, vulnerable and that which
makes us most human.
The people and experiences that inspire.
Queens Diamond Jubilee Medal for contribution to the arts.
