y paintings are inspired by my passion for gardens and gardening.

     
               
             
     

n particular, my garden in the Caribbean. I am drawn to the harmony, order and chaos which exists in nature.

   
             
 

hrough surface and colour, I want to create the enveloping sensory experience of garden and beach, landscape and plant life.

     
               
             
     

rom memory, using chance and amendment, I layer and re-arrange the painting until it reaches a fusion of imagination, knowledge and primarily, feeling and experience of that place.
