    Birds & Bees

    Birds of a Feather series

    Returning to England after a decade in France, I am now in a studio at the bottom of my garden in Kent, UK.

     

    Instead of the sea and the bright blue skies of the Cote d'Azur, I am surrounded by birds, squirrels, and my four-legged friend Skye, my English Springer Spaniel, my constant studio companion. 

    ​

    All these elements are trickling into my work, and my new series of works' Birds of a Feather, is inspired by my love of animals and the countryside.

     

    I merge the birds with an imaginary background, drawing on the realm of dreaming.

     

    I am influenced by the teachings of Longchenpa, Nisargadatta, and Ramakant Maharaj, who believe we create our realities and are living a dream. So, with this in mind, my abstract paintings have merged with the figurative elements of horses and birds.

     

    If it is all one big dream, and there is no difference between the waking and dream state, just our concept of reality, then there are no 'Still life' paintings or abstractions. They are all the same.
