It’s Not Always Obvious which direction to take with a painting and sometimes it takes a direction of its own. Same goes for life. So many choices to make. With everything. Every day. It can be hard for many, but not many share this. The beauty lies in the fact that these choices shape our unique stories.

Every choice we make, big or small, may come with a mix of excitement and uncertainty. Feeling overwhelmed. Fearing that you could be making the ‘wrong’ choice. Trust your instincts. 💪 Mine have kept me in good stead over the years. Embrace the uncertainty and use it as an opportunity for growth. Add colour to your life canvas and enjoy the beauty of the ride. ✨

In this body of work I explore the connection and divide between my public art and studio practices. Free of client constraints, the dynamic mark making is intuitively expressive. Resisting boundaries the resulting aesthetic invites an open dialogue.

These are the largest studio paintings on canvas I’ve created and I love working at that scale. Created over several months, the works experiment between a bold punch of colour combinations to gentler pastels.
