Do you like art with a message? I do, and that’s why many of my pieces directly reflect my philosophical understanding of current global social and economic realities.
There’s usually a critical thread inherent in my work. I have strong feelings about people’s social and political freedoms including being interested in social justice. I’ve practiced as a painter since the mid-seventies, working primarily in oils.
Earlier on I was influenced by the surrealist artist Salvador Dali and later I leaned towards abstract work reflecting social trends that I’ve observed, an example of this is my recent painting, “Bridging the Religious Divide”.
From the late 1990s I’ve been equally interested in sculpture. I primarily work with clay, metal and mixed media. Stylised clay nudes, which I create almost robotically, are a favourite theme of recent years.
I can also paint or sculpt something just for you. I love doing commissioned pieces. Call me to discuss your piece: 0424 833 270
