On the Quay

Artist Statement
I have been developing both abstract (Southern City) and representational maritime paintings (Maritime Heritage series) on canvas. In order to evolve a new form that expressed and connected the two, I have returned to a metal substrate utilized in earlier paintings and began investigating the possibilities of mixed media. My current work incorporates oil paint, collage, wood veneers, varnish and assorted debris from boatyards collected on single-handed sailing expeditions. My hope is that this work evokes the essence of my experiences and, through a gestural form, celebrates maritime heritage.
