My work is strongly grounded in my surroundings, unconsciously influenced by the ever-changing landscapes of Strangford Lough and the Fanad Peninsula in Donegal.
The shifting tides, seascapes, skies, landscapes, and seasons permeate my work. Swimming in the sea offers opportunities to experience my surroundings up close and personal.
The sensation of being consumed and immersed in my world penetrates to a significant level and resurfaces in my work. I paint without intent, intrigued by the complexity, order, and disorder of life.
