Artist's statement

When creating my works I sought to explore issues surrounding global warming, human destruction of the natural environment, unsustainable industrialisation and the depletion of fossil fuels. I have a great personal interest in these issues and felt that they are also of great prominence in society. I have created large works, accompanied by smaller works, to depict the natural and the human environment as I predict they may be in the future if they are not cared for.

Influencing artists: Jackson Pollock, Andy Devine, John Virtue, Anselm Kiefer, Jane Frank, Franz Kline, Clyfford Still
