Painting is my passion, I tend to create without too much of a plan, only a colour suggestion, what emerges is a bold, vibrant contemporary abstract filled with energy, emotion and strength. I am inspired to express myself with the use of line, colour and freedom. I like to take chances. My style has grown and developed and my paintings have been described as very bold and powerful - I am enthralled by such artists as Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell, Rose Masterpol and Helen Frankenthaler.
