I am a ‘creative type’: I feel truly balanced only when immersed in the creative act. I believe that artistic creativity is an innate character trait rather than an acquired skill. In this sense, I was born an artist. The Art ... is my soul. And with this soul I inspire and become inspired. The Art ... is what we all aspire to create and this art speaks a multitude of languages. My paintings represent an outward expression of the blend of my inner thoughts and emotions with the physical world in which we all live. Vibrant colours and a strong design sense co-exist with humour and compassion to create varied pieces with a universal and timeless appeal. The Art ... is all I am and proudly all I shall remain.
