\u201cMy primary concern is looking. I draw to comprehend the amazing interaction of forms, surfaces, spaces and shapes. \u00a0I try to understand appearances by building relationships and strive to make \u2018contact\u2019 with their intangible and continuously changing presence. Colour is used in different ways; it might be copied or adjusted to work. I am driven by how beautiful something is and I attempt to balance observation, invention and imagination.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
