A Dance

A dance frozen in time.

Mixed-media, 29 January 2020 (6" x 4")

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.

Directions in the New Year

Perhaps a more apt title is "Directions To the New Year. World of time and space move in a concurrent fashion where there is no pause to think.

Magnetic Attraction

Reaching for the sky all things are pulled down to earth and held captive to its forces.

Magnetic Attraction, 2017 (acrylic on canvas 24" x 20")

Defying gravity is temporary; the law is the law, and landing is inevitable. Hopefully it is a soft one.

Lift Off

Lifting off from what and to go where?

Movement in Paper

Movement in paper, movement on paper, movement with paper.

2016 December 26 (papiers colles 6" x 4")

The Centrifugal Force

Spinning away from the centre -- off the page entirely.

Cloud Action

Clouds swiftly passing, noticed in the shadows sweeping across the landscape.

Fleeting shadows -- "tricksy" some would say.

Echoes of Movement

Mercurial changes happen all around us - we pivot, we pirouette; we return to the uncertainties of life, the ambiguities of physical, spiritual and intellectual geography.

The centre must hold though we spin off the page.

Tai Chi

That hand motion -- closing and slightly twisting at the same time.

It's in the stance, the motion, the movement, the stillness, the grace.

Escaping the Page

Lunar phases circling with regularity; the tides moving with them on a daily basis. We question the pull that orients the flow, that causes tidal bores and storm surges.

Ink on paper (6" x 4")

Waxing and waning in crescents and orbs, craters rotate in view of everyone.

Then there is the light!

Not to mention the cheese!

Planes of Green, nos. 1 & 2

Movement unbounded; trees fly across the universe in a rush to get where they should be.

Choose your mode of transport.

Skateboard or ladder?

Dynamics of Movement

Drawing to capture the dynamics of movement and keep it coherent is the challenge. It is two dimensional after all; its reality is static with the appearance of depth and dimension.

There is surprise for there is movement here and there is depth and coherence. Simple then?
