These paintings are a unity of both our worldly interior living spaces and the universal abstract space of expansive energy.

Every object and structural feature of an interior is alive with the presence of the people who have chosen, collected and created them.

I paint interiors as landscapes of mountains and hills, canyons and spaces of distance and sky. Corners of rooms unfold, like pages of a book, into mysterious shades and dimensions of atmosphere that move towards infinity.

A house interior is a maze of human movement; right angled turns, up and down, wallsx4, corners intersecting with floors and ceilings, entries and exits, window views outwards or curtains closed, inward.

The positive power of contrast, light and dark, black and white, positive and negative magnetic attraction and reaction is also an aspect of my work, along with momentum and speed of both mind and light, with which these works are filled.
