This collection grew out of a deeply personal period in which I was processing an unusual betrayal that was not mine to speak about publicly. Without language or narrative to lean on, I turned to the studio. Inspired by the raw immediacy of Cy Twombly, I tacked large canvases directly to the wall and began to write my emotions on the surface through urgent, unreadable scribbling. The act was instinctive and physical, a way of releasing tension and giving form to thoughts that could not be shared. 

The paintings evolved alongside my internal landscape. I began to veil those marks with thin layers of oil, introducing light and color. Gradually, luminous, quiet landscapes emerged. These works hold both histories at once: raw intensity and a search for stillness.

These pieces represent a moment of transformation, where vulnerability and resilience shaped the evolution of the work. The depth created through layered mark-making and translucent paint gives each piece a sense of atmosphere and presence.

In this body of work, I approach landscape as a visual language to be distilled and transformed rather than described. A single horizontal line can transform a field of color into a spatial experience that reads as land, distance, or atmosphere.

Color is the primary force. I deliberately push juxtapositions toward extremes, allowing areas to become too pastel, too saturated, or too dark — before pulling back to find balance. The tension between intensity and restraint becomes a compositional tool, guiding the eye and shaping the emotional register of the work.

Forms are reduced, dissolved, or reconfigured so that what remains is not a literal landscape but the emotional sensation of one. Through this process, I am ultimately seeking radiance and stillness — that specific feeling of exhaling into open space.

These abstract landscapes offer an experience of place that is psychological rather than geographic, distilled into light, structure, and peace.

Hand-built ceramic wall sculptures, each one shaped by intuition and a deep sense of place — born from walks along water's edge and through sun-bleached desert landscapes. Formed individually from clay in organic, tactile forms, they carry the quiet memory of somewhere beautiful. Display a single piece as a moment of stillness, or arrange a collection to let them speak to each other — texture meeting texture, colour answering colour.

This new collection emerged from my wanderings through Arizona’s magnificent canyons, where light and shadow play an endless game of transformation across ancient stone. I found myself drawn to the emotional resonance of towering walls, vast skies, and rivers and valleys cutting through the landscape. The work borrows the natural forms of the desert: the awe of geological time, the meditative calm of open space, and the unexpected intimacy within monumental scale. Each painting becomes a vessel for these sensations.

Every Veiled piece starts in the dark. Rich, deep color laid down first, then I add light, resin and depth...a glossy surface that pulls you in until it feels like you're looking through frosted glass at something almost too beautiful to name. Small in size. Infinite in depth.
