Artist Statement
About my work and influences:
Sometimes called an eclectic artist, work is expressed in both two and three dimensions across a range of mediums. Besides the multiple skills and knowledge built up over the many years as artist/teacher, a heightened sense of awareness, flexibility and openness in one’s practice is essential for creative outcomes.
In my art practice visual imagery, personal metaphors and symbols evolve through exploring influences that impact on my senses, memory and perception.
Although the surroundings of tropical NQ rainforest, mountains, beach and backyard are a constant and rich source for inspiration and materials to manipulate, my art practice is very much a spiritual practice, building upon one’s intuitive and creative powers. It is a fertile means of tapping into ones inner world and making sense of, and to, the outer world. It is a process and journey of creativity, revelation, transformation and personal interpretation.
Being ever mindful of dynamic forces, energies & thoughts that connect/disconnect all things visible and invisible, my current work focuses to reflect such interactions. The multifaceted aspect of human subconscious and conscious thought is complex and my visual language has become much more intimate, personal, satisfying and of maturation. Art (thoughts, ideas and their physical manifestations) serves to feed those further down the river.
