Observations
I am interested in, observe and paint impressions of people and places they visit, atmospheric landscapes and seascapes with strong elements
of design, and beach environments. I paint in a figurative way about what I see.

Sketching records my initial impression, photography gives some factual resource. Developments in mixed media then lead to an acrylic
composition in its own right.
