Trees and Forests
The iconic nature of trees, as a symbol of life and growth, continue to inspire me. They serve as a vehicle to express my love of colour play. My painting style draws its inspiration from the impressionists and my work as a video journalist. The brush strokes bring to mind the broken look of digital imagery, adding a completely contemporary feel to my work.

The Flawed Man - What makes us human
I’ll call him a happy accident. My original intention was to have a perfect glass man looking for more meaning in life. But who is perfect? Like most of us, from a distance we look pretty good, but examine us closely and our flaws become apparent. A chip on the shoulder, a lump in the throat, feet of clay are only a few of this man’s flaws. Like the rest of us, he’s not perfect, but still, like most of us, he looks for more meaning in life.

Just Before I picked Myself Up
At first glance this piece is depressing until you read the title. There is a moment when you are devastated by failure, by bad news or whatever daily disaster knocks you off your feet, when you decide to get up again and get on with things. This is that moment.

Urban Tree Spirit
Folklore is filled with stories of nymphs, sprites and other natural spirits that live in and around trees. What happens when one of those spirits is trapped in the city? In this piece, a sprite is caught in the glass, steel and concrete of urban life.
