Seeking

I seem to always have a question with each work -- whatever the medium. I seem to be always seeking.

Seeking the next step.

Seeking the way forward.

The landscape features most prominently in the body of my work. It is a landscape of suggestion, rather than a faithful figurative rendering; it is a landscape of fiction and abstraction. Major influences on my work have been the Canadian landscape, the tropical forest of the Congo and the land of the Mediterranean/Middle East. Born in Exeter, Ontario,I studied at the University of Prince Edward Island, McGill University in Montreal and the Université du Québec à Trois Rivières. I always ask one question; when does the unconventional become so utterly conventional as to become uninteresting - dull in fact? I hope these are not dull whatever else they are. Let me know what you think.

Coastal Erosion

Constant hydraulic action on the cliffs creates the conditions for erosion caused by the attrition of soil and rocks. Trees teeter on the edge only to fall in the next storm.

The coastline, eroded by waves and weather gives way to these forces of time and tide.

Three Islands Triptych

The central panel of this triptych seeks to capture the same three rivers at the mouth of the Hillsborough Harbou r that I saw in "The South Shore".

Quite by accident the panel on the right expands the shore.

Quite by design the panel on the left extends the harbour and changes the perspective.

No longer does it reflect one harbour or one shore but translates into a unique place of sky and light, water and land.

Each carries its own composition, but give them one wall together and they enter into their own sphere.
