Qualifications

'''Style ''' Current work is abstract in nature and deals with the way shifting planes interact with each other. Though not figurative there are certain forms that do display figurative characteristics, but these forms are purely used as elements in the overall design of the abstract paintings. A layering of colour, shape and texture create a sense of depth within the picture plane itself as visual harmony is achieved.
