There is nothing like an intriguing puzzle to get the brain working and few things more satisfying than finding a solution to a perplexing problem. While some people take pleasure in working on the newspaper’s daily crossword puzzle, I can’t resist sorting through and arranging shapes and colours.

I am inspired by the intricacies of interwoven forms and tangled layers of patterns I discover when I hike through woodlands and the countryside or while exploring local streams and lakes. It is my curiosity and the desire to decipher, understand and organize the shapes and colours that motivate me to paint. In an attempt to unravel and understand how the pieces fit together, my strategy relies on two things: simplify the complicated and take an alternative negative (subtractive) approach to build my imagery.
