My work is process-based and aims to uplift the viewer. I like to work organically, and I juxtapose organic forms like splashes, dripped paint, painterly mark-making with pattern and organized forms, strips, block shapes and collage. The result is a dynamic eclectic mix which creates vibrant surface energy of colour, positivity and fun.
