I placed a lemon on some crumpled paper on a worktop in the kitchen; I have used this composition several times and the combination of these elements created a light, airy feel. In addition, the surface qualities of the three elements combined to create a varied textural/patterned quality that I wanted to explore more. By scaling up I was able to turn form into space and "enter" the painting, creating an environment or arena of events. A granular quality runs through the forms and space in a unifying manner - and maybe a residual memory of Carlo Rovelli's book "Reality is not what it Seems"

I work in the still life painting tradition from brief, often precarious, arrangements of small, neutral or insignificant subject matter. I use observation, intuition, relationship, scale and metaphor to create a sense of clarity and space and give form to my sensibility. I regard form as concentrated space, process and phenomena and strive to create visual meditations that are layered, poetic and stop time. I draw on my interests outside art for inspiration - mainly music, yoga, meditation and Eastern thought, mainly Tao and Zen. I am particularly drawn to the increasing connections between Buddhist related thought and aspects of contemporary science, particularly physics and neuropsychology. I have also been very influenced by Iain McGilchrist's groundbreaking book "The Master and his Emissary", a Rosetta stone that connects and explains the two brain hemispheres, "the two cultures" and the philosophies of East and West. It reveals much of arts response to 20th/21st century Western society to be in fact, like its subject, Cartesian and dualistic. Please look at my blog for more written thoughts and observations.
