The Last Light of the Day
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.

Dry Rain Revisited
It has other names – a dry storm, a virga, a shaft of dark clouds looking as if rain is expected.

It all evaporates before hitting the ground -- not quite a mirage.

Dry Rain
A dry storm or a streak of cloud is a weather phenomenon. There is a technical term for it. The painting is reminiscent of others I have done called "Shaft of Sunlight" (also in this blog) and two paintings done in 2002-03 called "Intervention" one a study for the other. As is so often the case these have more than the obvious meaning but sometimes it takes a few years to see what that is. Let me know if you would like to see the 2002-03 paintings called "Intervention".

A Remote Allusion
A blazing sky - indicating a sunset or wildfire?

Ambiguous Reality
All that is real, or the appearance of real. All that is imaginary and the appearance of the imagination.

Slipstream
In the wake of swiftly moving currents, the passage is sometimes narrow.

Headland
Sandstone soft. Striking in colour.
Wind, in effects.
Brilliant light of summer.

The Saltwater Marsh
Flooded by tides in an eternal ebb and flow, the coastal wetlands are the harbinger of health – the unseen activity of marine life.
