ARTIST STATEMENT AND INSPIRATION

 My interest in exploring the relationship between Science and Art stems from my background in Biochemistry, as well as utilizing pedagogical approaches in combining  these disciplines via cross curricular links. I utilize the stages of observation and  experimentation from the Scientific method, in my approach to Art, for instance I observe  the natural world around us, whether that be the shape of a leaf, patterns in the waves  and rocks, colours in the cloud formations to the shape and texture of the tree branches  and so on. Then, I experiment with distilling these themes into the abstract paintings or I  simply photograph the biology of life with links to human insights and emotions.  


The insight between nature, faith and humanity is a life-long discovery. Our perceptions of the natural world and our role within it, are interesting concepts to explore in free flowing brushstrokes.  What is reflection? What is integrity through suffering? Do we aspire to be 'David' or 'Goliath'? What of the many miracles? What happens when our dreams come true? What about the two worlds? The one of 'now' and the other of the lasting 'hereafter'? This is just the beginning of the journey...
