Light on form is my inspiration and fuels all my work. I start each piece as an exercise in lighting form, whether it is the human figure or the landscape/seascape; and each piece invariably progresses into a spiritual journey where the painting evolves into a vignette of my everyday life – the emotions, the responses to external events and pressures, and my ongoing spiritual reflection. Whilst not intentional a deep emotion is evoked and subconsciously it dictates each facet of the painting: the palette, the background, the brushstrokes. Each piece takes me on a journey, sometimes unwelcome but always illuminating.

In 2003 I participated in the Fourth Edition of the Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea in Florence Italy. Other career highlights include:
