Part of a series inspired by the razzle dazzle ships of the second world war, theoretically camouflaged by their eye catching designs of broken planes and abutting geometric shapes. This painting comes with secure split batten hanging hardware. It is in three parts, which can be hung closely abutted or slightly apart. The support is wooden, with linen stretched over it. The finish is textured.

I make paintings. An instinct for geometry and pattern-making, combined with a fascination for three-dimensional effects worked onto the flat plane of the canvas, typify my practice. My most recent works are painted on aluminium, which has led to a more general change of approach to surface. Metal supports have long been used by artists and the smooth flatness necessarily requires a particular method of working: a need to organise in advance, spontaneity ceding to calculation and precision. Part of this is that some of the aluminium surface is left unpainted, a critically important part of the painting as the surface reflects light unlike a linen or cotton duck canvas. There is an interplay between the pale reflecting shapes, and those that are painted. The resulting work does not directly represent a subject. By agitating the surface, the painting tends to extend into the space between the viewer and the painting, which creates a mood or non-representational response to a precise external experience. My way into abstraction was through the topography and field shapes of North Yorkshire and, although my work is no longer a direct response to landscape, the sharp corners of geometric shapes still correspond to fields enclosed by dry stone walls seen from a distance and at an oblique angle. Previously my work was multi-layered, the original painting obscured by gesso then rubbed back to reveal its origins, a painted palimpsest. Now my work is situated entirely in the present, not referring back but engaging directly with the ‘current’.
