| About the Artist |
I study the human condition; political and natural, introspective and external. My interest is in the forces that create, shape an individual's psyche. The mechanism of the act; the architecture of the mind. I am interested in how it all works, not simply, that it does work. I look to colour and texture to connect the art to reality. I paint to release. I
am an addict.
