Living on a Mountain

Once I lived on a mountain. It always gave choices.

Paper Collage 2014 (6" x 4")

Do I go up or down? Everyday.

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.

Terraced Landscape (Sifnos, Greece)

Terraced for planting, for natural fall-out of rain on rock; it undulates in the heat of the day.

Acrylic on paper (15" x 22.5")

I think of Sifnos, that island in the sun -- is there anything else but sunshine on this brilliantly lit, brilliantly coloured island.

Profound Occasions

Thinking deep thoughts,

with commercial breaks.

Winged Victory

Nike -- poor victory, hijacked for commerce!

Collage with ink (6" x 4")

A small derivative in honour of the wonders of ancient Greece.
