My work often begins with a landscape inspired by the shapes and colour within. My intentions are often overtaken by what I see and give myself the freedom to explore as to what I may find. The process can be both joyful and agonising depending on my state of mind at the time. My reference was originally an ariel view of ocean, rocks and beach and as I worked the painting somehow metamorphosed. I have titled it Secrets Within as the closer you look at this work the more you will see.
