| Statement
I have always been fascinated by natures unseen elements within
the environment, it's hidden mysteries relating to alternating moods
and atmospherics. This aspect appears in my expressionist landscapes
and figurative works alike, which in tune have been influenced by
the growing awareness of chaotic elements with in ordered universe.
Therefore most studies are a direct response to a time and place,
coupled with an unseen mystic ingredient, producing a surreal metamorphic
image of life without boundaries.
