"I believe passionately in the power of art to transform ourselves and the environment in which we live. Art enhances life, it has always been with us; we started drawing on walls in caves; we need to reflect on the world, to present it back to ourselves in different forms.I am primarily a landscape painter using oil paint and cold wax medium.
The inclusion of cold wax medium in my work has enabled me to create large-scale textural pieces and harness the expressive power of cold wax impasto surfaces.Oil and cold wax painting techniques are a unique and versatile way to create stunning works of art. By combining oil paints with a cold wax medium, artists can achieve a range of textures and effects that are not possible with traditional painting methods.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced artist, exploring cold wax techniques can open up a whole new world of creative possibilities.I have travelled extensively throughout my life and you don’t have to look very far to see the evidence; the turquoise of the Mediterranean Sea from my time in Cyprus, the warm ochres of the Persian Gulf surrounding Qatar, and an underlying preoccupation with design, order, and the tactile qualities of earth and stone from Germany"
