“These images are derived from imagination that emerges on a variety of levels from an inner world. They are a visual diary of internal experience, given outward expression as it permeates the consciousness of the artist. This is achieved through meditative reflection, and then through action based on the spirit of the thing with spontaneity and hopefully intuition. The image is finally arrived at through several stages, utilizing differences in texture and colour and sometimes tonal effects.”
