'Tigers in the grass', 2002
Oil on canvas

I have had a rather flippant art practice. The focus for my work has lain in the visual in materials in process in idea. At present my work is based in painting. I have been using the resource of sketch pads, using the information which I have collected over the last 4 to 5 years to make paintings. Mainly these paintings have been coloured lines applied in various ways. Titles of work are important, I use them to expand on the poetry of the work.

All of these things are likely to change as I am very interested in Photography, computer art (I make posters for "Music Box') and life drawing. I would like to travel and be inspired by different places to inform my practice. Also I would like to make public art about living in a new town, but those are future plans.
