Anchorage
100 x 100cm Surrounded by swirls of silver awen energy, she calmly sits on the greenest grass - entranced under the deep blue sky. Eyes closed journeying inwards, anchored amongst the flowers that are symbolic images of the many blessings in her life; as she quietly contemplates her future. Blue
and green should never been seen but in nature it looks so serene. |

A
Honey Bird Appeared 80 x 100cm This
painting was completed after having a painting session with, fellow artist,
Jamie Thompson. He was kind enough to share his secret style, in which
no brushes/palette knives are used in the execution of the subject matter.
You can check his work out on Facebook. |

Reflecting
80 x 100cm Donated
to
raise
funds for a youth dance education program: Here a lady sits in quiet contemplation, reflecting on her past. The thirty-six stars are symbolic of significant events or seeds that have been sown in her life. The swirls represent roots, which tie her to the life map that has led her to the present. An inner strength is born from such ponderings, stimulating a boost of energy that is drawn upon for the subsequent part of the life map or journey ahead.

Shine
50 x 60 cm "It is our fear of giftedness that complicates life. All problems have at their root the fear of taking the next step in life and the fear of acknowledging our gifts and talents. These so called problems are resolved with ease and simplicity by simply acknowledging our life enhancing gifts and unwrapping our Presence." (Dr Chuck Spezzano.)

Thankyou
40 x 60 cm Inspired by Dr Masru Emoto's research into water crystals. http://www.masaru-emoto.net/ I found his dicoveries amazing and beautiful! This is my interpretation of a water crystal photographed by Dr Emoto, which had been exposed to the word Thankyou.

Om
Daksham Namah
80 x 100 cm This
was an experimental work aiming to capture flexibility. As explained by
Deepak Chopra in his book titled, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga "...actions
acheive maximal benefit with little effort... like the blossoming of a
flower, or the movement of the stars, you do not see nature straining.
There is a rhythm and balance in the natural world." (Chopra,
2004 Pp: 60-61). |

A
Lil Box of Dreaming (2)
60 x 50 cm This painting is based on a dream that I had a few years ago while still at university. In dream interpretations to dream of a brightly coloured butterfly traditionally symbolises prosperity and success. Or rebirth and transformation. Either way I like to think it was an auspicious dream promising a bright and happy future.
|

A
lil box of me (1)
60 x 50 cm The
swirls encapsulated within this box symbolise my inner emotions, locked
tight. Only a few have been allowed entry to my inner world. Located in
warm, safe surroundings a light breeze is blowing through the open window
reflecting a gentle nature. The quirky, swirling curtain also a reflection
of character. The colours are deep, passionate yet mysterious. |

Essence
60 x 50 cm "We
each draw a world of line, form, and colour using ink. Our instrument
is no more then a speck of consciousness, like a pencil point moving across
a blank piece of paper. ... Could anything be more mysterious and at the
same time more miraculous?" (Chopra, 2004 p. 251.) |

Egyptian
Secrets Oil on Canvas 60 x 100cm ".
. . Leave behind the material world, and imagine yourself immeasurably
expansive. Rise out of time to eternity. Believe that for you nothing
is impossible. See that you are immortal and learned in every art and
science. Be at home in the haunts of every living creature. Make yourself
higher than the highest and deeper than the depths. Embrace within yourself
all opposites-heat and cold hard and fluid. Think yourself everywhere
at once on land, at sea, in heaven.. . ." |

Icyellow 2005 Acrylic/Oil on Canvas 80 x 45cm This piece is inspired by Gustav Klimt's Water Serpents II, 1904-07. The intention was to hone in on the upper portion and face of the main serpent. I am pleased with the way a spiritual sense of tranquility and abandonment has been captured.

Departure Point #1 2003 Oil on Canvas This painting is very special as it was dedicated to my brother who died. It came together so beautifully. Another archway, this time it has moved beyond the confines of an interior. The gate leading up to the archway represents a choice to move beyond. The seven trees are associated with the seven siblings. Four aligned on one side and three on the other. Arranged in birth order, the lone tree positioned within the arch is the brother who passed over.

The Pawn in the Game of Life 2002 Oil on Canvas 100 X 100cm. The archway is a common element within my paintings. The lighting sets the mood of mystery, the archway helps to capture a context for this mood by leading into another room lying just beyond the pictorial field. By intention, this withholding of information, in the sense of a room that cannot be seen, triggers the intrigue. This notion aligns with my personal yearning to comprehend subjects of a metaphysical nature.
|
|
Sisters 2002 Oil on Canvas 85 x 55cm The Arch again aims to capture intrigue of what lies in the next room. The two dolls being sisters, one with hands facing up, to symbolize a need to understand one's reality. The other doll's hands are shown facing down to show denial. The feather is another reoccuring element within the work, used to denote hope.
