I am passionate about art, I see it as a very positive energy force in the world, like music, it has the power to comfort, inspire, energise, soothe or excite, or to provoke and unnerve – art has all these possibilities and for me provides a never ending journey of discovery. This site showcases my latest body of work using both acrylics on canvas and egg tempera on gesso panels.
Most of my work is done using the ancient techniques of egg tempera and gilding on my own handmade gesso panels. Over twenty years ago I learnt to paint icons using egg tempera and gold leaf, my work has developed from this starting point and I continually revisit this beautiful medium to produce contemporary work which I hope has the ability to capture the beauty of the world from dramatic landscapes to ordinary everyday objects.
