The cycle of life..an occasional tandem ride, but in the main, a lone,twin wheel experience for me


2006 saw me seriously spending money on new painting equipment,easel and brushes and the like, to satisfy the growing urge to paint as I had done , earlier in life


My painting releases me from the mundane, it gives me freedom to paint whatever image or non image I wish. I use colour as my inspiration and try to disengage the thinking part of myself..letting the unknown part come through..trusting my BRUSH more than my thoughts..painting with my eyes closed letting the inner landscape through..not using logic but relying on an inner sense of balance


Its the spirit or the soul or the heart or all of those..I suspend my reason. I am creating another dimension with every painting


I don't plan anything and just begin when the feeling to begin gets strong enough. I let the painting develop as it seems to want to go..

I get lost in the painting as I do it..and it comes out this way...I enjoy making a 'dimensionality' happen..when it looks like it could be something but we are not sure what it is..this is the ambiguity that I enjoy.what it is ..is up to the observer then , whatever I think,people always interpret their own meaning.thus I can indulge the need to paint 'realistically' whilst painting a new non reality, an abstraction.
