AS I AM A SENSUAL PERSON, painting is a very sensuous experience for me; it engages most of the senses, the feel of the paint as you apply it to the canvas or paper, the feel of it on your skin. The beautiful wonderful colours excite the soul, and the scent of oils is exquisite.

The wonderful thing about Art is it’s unique ability to enable people to see the world in new ways. It is not just about beauty but about life and how the seemingly mundane things around us that we take for granted are extraordinary. I remember driving down the M6 on a wet spring day when in front of me was an old mud splattered truck carrying blue pallets - I was thrilled by the colour and shapes, by the shadows. When I got home that night I had to paint it I just could not get the image of my head. Some things are there waiting to be discovered, or for someone to notice them.
