new paintings/new series -
Aerial is a series of meditative abstract works. The paintings suggest elements of the natural world that are in constant flux and provide a centering rhythm. Aerial is mainly inspired by the sky.
I started this new body of work as a temporary escape from the maelstrom of stresses we are all facing on a daily basis at the moment. So, every once in a while, I take a step back from working on my fictional landscapes, which deal directly with one of those stressful issues: the Climate Crisis (specifically it’s psychological impact on our lives), to seek out some solace in the beauty of calmer horizons.
