Nature is a continuous wonder to me, not only as a boundless source of inspiration, but as a creative role model. She is my teacher. Her colours, textures, patterns and shapes have guided my hand for many years.
This gallery represents a broad range of themes, from the natural world, interpreted in a variety of ways. The methods I use in creating a work, seem to be in tune with the subject itself.
This gallery presents selected examples of technique and inspiration that span a decade.
