Original artwork description:

I am interested in the balance between figuration and abstraction in the world around us. Recently, I have been painting still life and daily scenes using a restricted palette and intimate scale, which persuades the viewer to look beyond the motif and become immersed in the form. The viewer's initial recognition of the subject matter bleeds away as the abstractions within the image act as a catalyst to broaden the viewer's insights, like Wittgenstein’s ladder.
