The focus of my painting is the human psyche. I explore multidimensionality using oil and acrylic paints. In my work I explore consciousness, which is inclusive of the numinous, and the realms of shadow and darkness. I listen behind the mind and then allow the Intelligence of the unseen to express out the end of my hand. Painting is the most compelling thing I do because the process demands that I go deep and listen into the mystery of Creation. My intention is that my work resonates with truth, beauty and authenticity. For me painting is an act of celebration and worship and I do it because I have to.
