“Since turning to painting full time in 1982, 90% of my work has been confined to the studio where I produce long series of works investigating and developing ideas based on line, shape and colour. Small scale collages play a large part of this work, using all manner of material, but in particular waste paper and ‘junk mail’. Larger paintings in oil and acrylic are occasionally undertaken and generally based on the smaller exploratory works.”
