You Say, I Say (oceanic) oil on canvas 152 x 182 cm	You Say I Say (floral) oil on canvas 152 x 182 cm

Although nearly all my recent work has been realised in what are ,
essentially traditional painting techniques ; ie oil on canvas , a huge part
of of this work is to push these very techniques and materials to their
absolute limits ( see images below ) .
Other essential components are emotional intelligence and a poetic
sensibilty often executed in a fugitive and subtle earth based palette.These
paintings strive to be beautiful , haunting and contemplative - often
existing as objects in their own right.

A painting is always always a window and always always an object.
