Artist Statement:
My work celebrates and
commemorates Lost Moments. We
all loose moments constantly
throughout our lives
especially in the lives of our
children with them growing and
changing so rapidly. My work
memorialises the fragments of
our lives that are lost
forever.
Much of my work is of a
traditional nature in that it
is realistic to a certain
extent. However I express the
idea of the picture being a
memory by cropping the image
to allow the viewer to catch a
'glimpse' of the scene being
portrayed.
Another way that I suggest the
idea of the scene portrayed
being a memory is to blur and
distort the image by dragging
a brush through wet paint,
using solvents to change the
appearance of the paint and
experimenting with various
different materials and
techniques...

I learned myself to paint after being given a set of oils at age 12 as a present from my parents. I was obsessed by Salvador Dali's double images while going through my own halluciogenic youth. |
