Morning Meditations in November
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.

Hi love, These are lovely! The second fairly leaps with the dawn's light and the last just had the feel of caterpillars crawling up leaves and stems, and all life getting into action! I wonder if you might experiment with reversing the color and line activity just for fun. Flood the page with uncontrolled atmospheric color infusion(s) and then try drawing into it, wet or dry, just to see what happens.
