Artist’s Statement
"Through my teaching & travelling worldwide, I have learnt to express myself through my work with bolder tone & colour, & through the inspiring artists that I have met along the way throughout the world.
My influences have widened, my style has loosened and I continually source new ways to express myself as a painter, whether through my love of pastel, my sketches in watercolour, or in oils.
Much of my life has been spent promoting and endorsing pastels as a truly serious & worthy medium for artists, and they continue to inspire & excite me whether used in dry or wet techniques. It is gratifying to see pastels finally being accepted as a serious painting medium & I'm proud of my involvement in this progress.
From 2014 I have continued to promote pastels and teach invitational workshops internationally, and home time concentrates on my development as an artist, painting full time in the studio"
