Artist Statement:
The great thing about
beginning your career as a
commercial artist is that it
allows the opportunity not
only to be flexible in
artistic approach but also to
adapt to different techniques
and media.
The human form has always been
of great interest to me,
whether it needed to be
portrayed on a bookjacket or
an advertisement. The
possibility of exploring
potraiture is enhanced today
by the use of the digital
camera and some of my work
utilises my own photographs as
a source material that is then
transposed onto canvas.
I enjoy capturing the
sometimes secret moment, by
means of the camera, which is
swiftly lost without it. For
me, the process of distilling
that image into a network of
texture, colour and brushwork
allows the internal camera to
function and carry the
perceived image beyond the
somewhat static vision of the
digital into an area where
mood and emotion work together
for viewer and artist
alike....
