Picture
A couple of years after the advent of the new millennium, I set  aside my writing pen, picked up a paintbrush and since that moment have
preferred this medium for self-expression and creativity. Through brush strokes  on the canvas, I endeavour to convey my feelings of seeing the beauty in the simple things around me. I seem to have a preference for items that most people  pass by without a second glance; things that are often old and have fallen into decay (much like myself!), the aged patina of blistered paint and skewed structures, furrows in a field, a line of laundry.  My loose, free flowing style leans toward the abstract but still has a clear story to tell.  I find being an artist - the written not so much as the visual - is a life of  solitude and being given the opportunity to share my work is a way to attempt to connect with others.  I am most happiest when I am creating.
