This new series of paintings investigates the subject of physical energy, light, colour theory, shape and line.

Its relationships, dialogues and compositions within a space, explore from the front to the back of the painting to create a narrative. There is often a feeling of classic landscape painting with a back, mid and a foreground to the work, creating a feeling of looking through. 

The viewpoint varies, as sometimes we can be flying  with an aerial view. In some of the works there is a feeling of a smaller still life scale, as if objects were placed on a table. I also consider the edges of a painting as being an  important element. 

There are many layers, painting on and taking away, revealing flashes of what lies underneath, cutting and scraping through is another area of investigation. My visual language in this series is: Colour equals  light, light equals space.
