About My Work

While the still life is my most recurrent subject, it has been said that I turn everything that I paint into a still life. My work has been described as "mysterious narratives...with common objects playing unusual roles, offering tales of strange journeys". My pictorial scenes have been described as land/seascapes of voids and emptiness, the buildings and interiors as surreal. Regenerative themes such as water, gardens, plants and fruit have been my most recent preoccupation. I like to combine bold flat shapes with rounded forms as the cubists did. Color, used provocatively and sensually, is my great joy. I see my work as most often contemplative and quite often playful.
