Enchanted lands' speaks of the influence of ancient myth and untouched landscapes. They glimpse into other-worldly places; ancient lands, angelic planes, mythological and fairy realm. They imaginatively fuse abstract and figuration in multi-layered images that develop organically through layers of paint and scraping it away.
Etheral figures emerge from their landscape of colour, texture and light. Each piece is perpetually mutable, shifting focus and intent, according to environment, atmosphere and mood. The well-worn notion that meaning is in the eyes of the beholder is renewed in my latest paintings. The many layers yield a succession of versions for each viewer. Above all, these are paintings to live with, paintings whose hidden depths are continually developing.
