As a painter, my practice is firmly rooted in abstraction. I incorporate organic and geometric forms in combination with vibrant colours to explore themes of luck, superstition, and chance. Operating purely through the language of shape, line and colour, my paintings rely on the absence of recognizable features from the familiar external world. Often, titles are generated by idioms and colloquial language to create some connection between the abstraction in the painting and the material world. My intent is to create paintings that evoke a strong visceral reaction—however positive or negative that may be!
