This work represents my striving -
as the musician does for the pure lyrical note, as the dancer for balance and interpretive powers and as the athlete for the supreme effort that transcends discipline. It springs from a deep sense of gratitude for the gift of awareness, which more than the satisfaction of doing something I really love, is a source of daily joy.

I am fascinated by rhythm and design in nature, whether formed by the play of light and shade, the undulating layers of the land or the intricate detail of a close-up. Designing a painting is, for me, first, a patient process of simplifying modeling and abstracting what I see. Then, by working within a limited palette, I try to create the feeling for the subject, aiming for harmony and tranquility of colour
and form.
