“Inspiration comes from what I see in front of me; something as simple as a captivating view, then I work and rework it so that it becomes a feeling, the feeling of gazing and where your mind may take you, what it may reflect.”

The colour palette ranges between soft pastel backgrounds to darker moody skies, and exuberant brights for abstracts.  Because of its emotional force, colour is often the starting inspiration for a work.
