Artist Statement:
My work has everything to do
with the mixture of senses and
sometimes to do with my
response to new surroundings.
For instance, growing up in
urban America, physical
boundaries included chain link
fences, buildings and other
man-made barriers. My
response, since settling into
rural Ireland, to those
barriers are the differences
in materials used thereby
indicating the use,desire and
need for boundaries in a
persons life no matter where
they come from. Hence, the
'Hedgerow Series and all
subsequent Landscapes.
Food is a reoccurring theme
as the changes in culture
stimulate me and most of all
the mixture of the senses
involved when painting food
and related objects. 'What
does this colour tastes like?'
I might ask myself. The form
of the objects are created by
the light, man-made or
natural, warm or cool, but
still described by the shapes
the light makes. The subject
is more about the tactile
responses to the images or the
idea rather than about the
subject itself. Usually my
works are produced in series
form. ...
