Painting is a way of giving expression to ideas and feelings between my inner and outer world. In the act of painting there are fleeting moments when I feel connected to a mystery, something immense, a deep beauty . . . just as I do when hiking in the wilderness or gazing at the horizon between fields and sky. I sense the duality of opposing forces within "life", a consciousness or not. I tread this tightrope nervously, yet happily – negotiating both sides of a fine line while painting.
But, quite simply – there is always the delight of creating luscious colours, of teasing light from dark shadows and transforming the blank canvas into 'a thousand words' – all magical! It is a choice, a small attempt to express a 'beauty and truth' as opposed to darkness. For me this is easily found in the myriad expressions gifted by Nature.
