My Sample Artwork
The nature of continual time based change that you hear in music is of continual interest to me. How instruments overlap, engage, clash, shift how themes repeat, metamorph, slow down speed up. This current work endeavours to 'capture' a visual connection to what happens in music. Energy that flows from the notes and rhythms of music spark and energise me. No one piece of work is a direct interpretation of a piece of music. The energy is 'borrowed' and reinterpreted flowing into a different medium, channeled by my reactions and a sense of composition, and what feels right.
Interesting Quotes:
Life does not exist without movement and movement does not exist without life. Movement is the expression of life. All movements are of a spatial nature. The continuation of movement throughout space is rhythm. Thereby rhythm is the expression of life in space. Hans Hofmann.
To me a work is finished when all parts involved communicate themselves, so that they don't need me. Hans Hofmann.

“Your pieces are always most captivating to me as I often study them as what they look like from afar. THis time im not swinging from a tree viewing from a glance of head over heels looking backward between my legs. Eye in the sky, tide on fire fizzle out like the rolling of the waves. Pushing darkness dreams in weep, electicity to burst compressed emotions released until fingertips trigger this switch. ..But its fun to get carried away. fa la la la, la la la la. anyways, back to my false forfillment of all the voids. ”

“Today it looks blown away in a sort of wasted faiery land without essence or creatures. A constant storm in a mild fury engaged in shallow air that was always just the breeze in an open timber hid.”
