Mixed media and acrylic on canvas 40cm sq
There are barriers some are subtle others plain. A net is more than a barrier, it catches and holds. The frayed edges soften the impact; maybe they are time worn, as if by tradition. The net sorts and separates, being caught in the net is being caught out. Included yet excluded.

What might be a landscape or seascape is turned to form another plane or reality. The boundary between surfaces and realities is blurred. Scale becomes ambiguous. The crusted edges either coast or shell, the pearl-shimmer horizons are twisted from the horizontal.
Mixed media on canvas 20″ sq
A seashell and other objects are embedded into and onto the canvas. The shell although like an ear is as much sending as catching a message in the form of a cloud whisper. What might be a landscape or seascape is turned to form another plane or reality.

There is a suggestion of an angel, perhaps in transition from an earthbound reality. The collaged fragments are from a magazine article on the aerial photography of Edward Burtinsky. There is a mix of plan and elevation and of object and image.
In two parts this piece is an extension of the Limitary Patterns theme. The work incorporates borders and sections, boundaries and edges. This developed during the making to include matching transitions of pattern across the canvas edges on all sides. This is similar to, but not exactly a hidden repeat pattern.
The two parts are 40cm sq in mixed media and collage on cement on canvas.

Mixed media including bitumen and cement with assemblage on canvas
2014 8″x 8″ x 2″
A continuation from the ‘bare roots’ series, this piece relies more on composition and texture. The natural colour of the cement ground is more obvious.
In Night Leaves there is also a more deliberate attempt to create a sense of allegory.

This contiuation from the Grass Roots series aims at a darker allegorical meaning.
Bare Roots I
A series of three small (8″sq) paintings using mixed media and cement on canvas.
Bare Roots II
Bare Roots III
Bare Roots; the origins revealed or left by paring to the essentials. Again this concerns beginnings. A continuation from the ‘grass roots’ series, these pieces rely more on composition and texture and surface. The natural colour of the cement ground is more obvious than in many of the other pieces.
