The words here are formed using letters of the alphabet tgether with spaces, stops and starts which we have become accustomed to as language. We use it to verbally communicate. Words of love, hate, protest, praise, explanation, and excuse. The visual language that I employ is garnered from experience, trial and error, study, imagination, design, skill, texture, line, light, and the all embracing world of colour. Thus I draw, print, design, paint, and make 3D objects.

The end produced product is from a wide spectrum of observation and visualization from notes, sketchbooks, jots, photographs and anything related and relevant. It is up to the Spectator to look, search a little and decipher the shapes, colours, and textures which may be about something or nothing. As an artist I have never embraced any dogma or ism and therefore am free to explore sunrise, sunsets, space and galaxies.

Photography is useful to record and freeze moments as virtual statements or to be used at a later date, distilled through the trials of experience to help a work/project in progress or at the design fermentation stage.

And now colour. The relevance and magic of the spectrum offer thousands of tones from just 4 colours, yellow, magenta, cyan, which with the addition of black is how all see the world through our eyes, the media - photos in mags, newspapers, T-shirts, fashion, TV, film with or without 3D specs. This is how we see the world and take colour for granted. Because it is everywhere. The human eye can distinguish about 10 million different colours.
