“A recurrent theme and starting point of my recent paintings has been based on memories, both recent and earlier, that have left a visual impact. The themes in my paintings normally represent a passing moment in a particular place and time. Working on a number of pieces concurrently, gives each piece room to breathe and develop at its own pace.

Recent paintings are all in the same size format, the largest size series to date, all covering different subject matter. Working on this size, has allowed exploration in more detail which would have not been possible in the smaller format.

The starting points of the painting The Shoot II – Paris in Spring is a glimpse of a chance encounter at the end of a fashion shoot in Trocadéro, Paris.

Recent paintings aim to capture different moments, each with its own point of reference. The point of reference is rarely static and usually in flux. The evolving point of reference is an interest, in how it may resonate in the current climate.”
