My paintings are based on a response to landscape.

The paintings are made in the studio but they rely on observations and information collected from particular locations.

These observations are combined with memory and I select the significant elements I feel need to be included in the painting.

I am aiming to chart the territory between the real and the imagined.

The actual process of painting also plays a part in the outcome – these latest works are a balance between spontaneity and control.
