Statement of Work;

A few years after graduating and designing Treehouses, I got the urge to start painting again after a gap of over 5 years. The first few paintings I worked on where quite dark, lonely male subjects. However winning a trip around Thailand I was inspired by the ancient temples, culture and atmosphere of the country. On my return I re-evaluated my entire style of painting, choosing to loosen up and add the warmer colours I had seen in the temples I had visited. I also looked at the subject matter, aiming to in some way capture the spirit and peaceful nature of the people. Pulling all these new inspirations together I have created my new works entitle “A Place in The East”
