ARTIST’S STATEMENT
As an artist I prefer to work in oils and collage, but
occasionally I revert to watercolor or acrylics. I work mostly from imagination, drawing inspiration from
poems, songs, myths, memory and travels round the world. Although I have listed
the main points of my formal art education, I am very aware that an artist
never finishes learning new approaches and the use of different media, or a
combination of all of them. That
is what is so exciting about being an artist.
