Painting is immeasurably frustrating and at the same time immeasurably life-enhancing. I am of that breed of Artist that does not create 'political' or 'social context' art, I am more comfortable responding to the beauty that this world offers rather than it's ugliness.
My work is derivative of my life experience and the responses to the changes that I have encountered in my life.
The works on display in my website have all been created in the past three years, and were initiated by an international commission that required me to investigate the links between Mathematics and Art.
This developed further research into the origins of mathematical perspective, drawing upon the instructions laid down by Piero della Francesca. This in turn led me to look more closely at early Italian Renaissance imagery, and this is reflected in recent works.
Each month or so, I will present via the 'Artwork in detail' page a closer view of the featured painting / drawing, showing the surface texture, detail of drawing etc.
