Artist Statement:
In my paintings I endeavour to
give a clear and unambiguous
translation of the physical
likeness of some existing
object or situation. Even
while I attempt to be
objective and non-judgemental,
I realize that the subjects
themselves are charged with
meaning. These subjects are
all an expression of an idea
about our relationship to the
world. They are the physical
manifestation of a belief in
change and progress; that the
world is there for us to use
and shape to suit our desires
and needs. From this follows
the realization that change
may also include obsolescence,
dislocation, and decay.
If one proper function of art
is to validate experience,
then in choosing certain
subjects as worthy of artistic
consideration,I am also, to a
degree, validating the ideas
that engendered them....
