About
ARTIST STATEMENT
Seasons of adventure, soaking in the magic of light as it illuminates our mountains, and reveals hues within the landscape fuel my creativity. My approach to art is spontaneous and passionate. My palette oozes with bright colours, my gestural compositions are swift and confident. Transporting the viewer into my realm of emotions as I journey on foot through the landscape, that is my challenge, my goal.
