Artist’s Statement:

“Many of my paintings are the result of the blending that can be achieved by using just three or four colours. Although I love to experiment with many different colour combinations, one of my favourite colour schemes includes Prussian Blue, Pyrrol Red or Quin Rose, Hansa Yellow. The range and variety that can be achieved from these colours is astounding. I look for mood and harmony in my finished painting and when I see it, I feel a sense of accomplishment.”
