Art has always been the most important element in my life it rules my being, involved in everything I do. I have always had the need to record images and feelings on paper whether it be my surroundings or a landscape setting. I think of how I would paint: texture, colour, form, or expression. It is an on-going challenge for me to identify within myself what is art and how can I create it, and will I ever know if I have achieved it.
I find art in everything I do; I don’t seem able to escape it. As a result I have explored most forms of it from drawing and painting in all media to wood carving, stain glass, photography, computer imaging, music, spending much of my time searching through art galleries, art magazines and reference books. I am constantly searching for artistic answers, on a quest for the right path to follow. Maybe the answer will be in my next painting.
