Visual art practice

My artwork covers a variety of styes and techniques and I am as comfortable with more conceptual work as I am with  the decorative and design aspects of visual art. I am currently concerned with personal meanings and tensions between human scale values and earth scales. I like to frame an idea like a ‘cartoon’ with simple elements in a unique conflict. My art also explores the conceptual boundaries of different disciplines, the representation of spatial concepts and views of the landscape, relationships of scale and the symbology of numbers.

Contemporary design art

A subset of my practice is connected with another branch of my work experience as a production artist. Although I often attempt to keep the conceptual work and the more decorative work separate, at times the visual design aspects of artwork in the contemporary design and decor frame can be a point from where where my more conceptual work draws strong organising principles. When these overlap in a meaningful way I tend to let them cross-pollinate each other.

Although I like to employ manual means to create art I am moving toward combining more digital techniques to further expand the possibilities of design.
