"My work is inspired by awe and awareness of nature, although it addresses the serious subject of the environment, it is a celebration rather than a lament. I aim to create otherworldly spaces that are ubiquitous, evoking an atmosphere rather than an actual place. My work celebrates the magic and mystique of nature and is imbued with a mystical sense achieved through fluidity, gold leaf, mixed media and symbols of nature, it is a blend of abstract & figurative."
About artwork: This piece illustrates our smallness in the world of nature, the person on the boat is small in comparison to the fish and surrounding landscape. I feel we need to develop a proportioned sense of ourselves among the rest of the natural world.
