My work is a meditation on the nature of water and how it connects us, shaping our lives through its ever-changing forms. It is a celebration of water’s beauty, energy, and timeless cycle. I relate most things back to water in a philosophical, spiritual, or literal way, these contemplations are the foundations for my painterly process. Through colour, texture, and movement I translate these reflections into paint. I try to capture the essence of water's ephemeral nature and its ability to manifest in various forms, whether it be the ethereal shape-shifting clouds or the flowing currents of a river.

My work is deeply influenced by the Japanese concept of Wabi-Sabi, a philosophy that embraces the beauty of imperfection and transience. My interpretation of Wabi-Sabi permeates my practice, allowing me to explore and experiment with different materials and processes. Embracing the positive outcomes of serendipity, I always approach my work with a sense of playfulness and openness, inviting unexpected elements to shape the final outcomes.

The philosophy of living in the present moment and accepting "the flow," which is inherent in many Japanese philosophies, has a profound impact on my artistic expression. By immersing myself in these concepts, my artwork organically evolves, embracing the fluidity of the creative process and surrendering to the currents of inspiration.
