2024

Despite being quite arbitrary in terms of continuity, nevertheless each new year engenders the feeling of a fresh start. Last year saw a loosening of  previous years’ predominantly rigid horizontal structures. This year sees further loosening of compositional frameworks and more emphasis on gesture, mood and memory. As ever, the main challenge of each painting is to find a balance between the formalities of abstraction and the need to reflect on the world outside the studio.
