Welcome to my gallery!

Kia kaha, Kahikatea

Acrylic on canvas, 2023

I conceived this painting as a type of perceptual abstraction – I am painting in the space of your perceptions. What is essentially a static picture quickly becomes dynamic – by this I mean it is an experience that unfolds as it holds your eye. Ambiguity of relationship is key here creating a pulsation or progression of changing relationships. 

Donated to and installed at Kensington in-patient unit, in Timaru, in recognition of the care I received there.  

Abstract butterfly (effect)

Acrylic on canvas, 2025

One painting, two canvases. The formal relationships here are in operation across the wall. I have tried to capture the effect of a butterfly fluttering. Do you think I succeeded? 

Donated to and installed at Ampss101, in Timaru,  in recognition of their support.
