Thank goodness for winter! It gives us a chance to enjoy those amazing cloud formations and moody skies. I personally think that nature displays some of the best art around! This painting is a tribute to this vivid display.

Thank goodness we are all so different! More than 8 billion souls floating around the solar system. All of the different languages, belief systems and ways of doing everyday things. I believe diversity gives us strength.

This is an earlier commissioned painting depicting the fresh, cool green waters from the west coast of New Zealand’s North Island.
There is a lotus flower symbolising new life and hope. A stylised surfboard leaves a flowing pattern which runs over the black sand and
swell lines. The Sun has just come up and creates its own pattern and reflections on the wave.

Here is an older painting from 2013 called “Flower people”. I was investigating the idea that people are like small seeds, spreading out into the world and living their lives like flowers. Life is so beautiful and brief!
More images can be found on my website..feel free to have a look.

Ever since I can remember Ive loved making and studying art. Skulls have played a massive role in the history of art makers for many centuries…even millennia! They can have a variety of meanings including representing the brevity of life. In my Red Skull cutout painting, Ive included lines to represent the layered earth in a strata. I quite like the idea that Earth is like a living being.
