The painters I most respected as early influence are, Vincent van Gogh, Wilem Dekooning, and Francis Bacon. The images I consequentially make are unavoidably inner reflections of the physical world. The symbols and markings of early man were of interest in my earlier work, it was also a process of understanding my own self -made images, and reasoning the use of paint, in an ever digitalized world. Trying to avoid being over-painterly, my recent work relies on roughness of surface and obvious over-painting, on which are placed smaller more detailed, and contrasting images in colour or language or style. These images reflect nature, light and dark, gravity, time: unavoidable happenings in life, and behind it all that old ‘existentialist’ question? What are we?
