Interview with Artist

Artist Statement

I have worked in watercolour for the last 25 years because it has filled my need for detail and soft integration of colour. Now, I am branching back into acrylic in search of more powerful light and richer colour. It is time for a change. I paint somewhat realistically but am more and more experimenting with the interpretive. I am now free to paint when I wish and I am delving into different techniques and ideas. I hope you enjoy my new avenues in painting.
