Umbrellas mushroom in the summer sun at the stretch of tawny sand where everyone is lost in paradise and the city’s broken dreams wait for another day.

SOLD
Golden finger strokes suggestive of a leafy tree amid amorphous blots of blue, grey, and green sits above a rippled reflection of the colours and shapes.
Goldtree
Out of the blue-grey shadows of dense forest a tawny-leaved tree declares itself. The imperfect mirror of the dark water shows bright traces of gold amid its own reflective brilliance of aquamarine dappling.

WHEN IN BLOOM – 30”h x 15”w, acrylic on canvas.
When in Bloom
There is a dogwood tree in my front yard
And every May it turns me into
The envy of my street.
Thirty feet high of brilliant white flowers
Like clusters of butterflies glowing at nightfall.
The neighbours say to me – in reverent tones
For I am the Keeper of the Dogwood –
That it has never bloomed so much as this year.
Every May they say that.
The other eleven months, my dogwood looks unremarkable,
And the neighbours only frown as they walk past my yard,
Tugging at their children and husbands who linger too long.

30”h x 15”w, acrylic on canvas
A woman’s muscular bare back and buttocks torqued in motion with one foot bent high behind her, painted in pink, white and black.

A long expanse of blue-grey stormy sky hovers over a narrow bar of honey gold and a swath of grass green.
PLAY OF LIGHT – 36”h x 24”w, acrylic on canvas.

Some god of sky, lathered in almost-storm, stamps furious love notes on the cool meadow green.

A deep rectangle of shaded blue rises to meet a mirrored red and orange blaze of cloud-like paint strokes under a grey stormy sky.
SOON – 36”h x 18”w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD

Nude seated female figure from the back, leaning on one hand, with dark hair swept forward over one shoulder, in shades of blue and white.
TURNAROUND – 24″h x 24″w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.

The firm planes of a back and sweet contrast of a shy foot. A woman’s face angled in beautiful pride, a tension of secretive poise and the possibility of a slow turn to reveal.

24″h x 24″w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
Dark purple rocks meet the wide expanse of aquamarine water with several black vertical lines on the horizon and a lilac sky.
RIVERWALK – 18″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.
Riverwalk
Low light glances off rockpiles along a serene riverbank, rich hits of burnt umber and gold. Across the water, eerie columns and smoky sky suggest a dark urban embrace, chilling yet beautiful nonetheless.

18″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
A soft grey and white portrait of a nude female sitting with legs spread and knees bent, head bowed and wavy hair obscuring her face.
THE THINKER – 28”h x 22”w, acrylic on canvas, framed. SOLD.
The Thinker
Lost in the ease of the body, lost in the swell of a feeling, lost in an idea wandering in vague patterns like markings on the floor. While she may appear whole and wholly there, she is in fact, quite lost.

28”h x 22”w, acrylic on canvas, framed
SOLD
A blue and white impressionistic portrait of a nude male figure with partially obscured face, reclining lower body, and torso propped on one arm.
T.W. – 24″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.
T.W.
A complex interplay of qualities. I see strength in ribbons of ink around biceps and sweetness in a relaxed belly and elegance in open legs. Power at rest.

24″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
Straw coloured grass in front of a large block of vivid green with purple mounds in the distance under a golden sunrise.
LIE IN GREEN PASTURES – 24”h x 20”w, acrylic on canvas.
Lie in Green Pastures
Green idyll is rocked by mauve-fingered mischief. It protests innocence – it’s the wind’s fault. I think green idyll is confused, but glorious sky laughs and begins to turn mischief the mild colour of honey.

24”h x 20”w, acrylic on canvas
A female figure in impressionist style depicted from bottom of breasts to mid-thigh, wearing dark blue garters and stockings, against a deep blue background.
MIDNIGHT – 18”h x 14”w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.

SOLD
Multicoloured river water with distant golden trees seen from the water’s edge amid dark rocks.
SILVER TUMBLE – 24”h x 36”w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.

SOLD
Fingerpainted portrait in grey and white of woman’s partially obscured face, nude torso, and bent leg.
STEALTH – 24″h x 20″w, acrylic on canvas.
Stealth
To paint a figure is to try to capture; and I liked the idea that this woman was eluding the grasp of both artist and viewer. A form of subversive rebellion. Swipes of paint erase detail, she threatens to disappear. And in losing her form, her agency is revealed – she is the thief at work here.

24″h x 20″w, acrylic on canvas
An isolated pair of crimson red lips pursed in a kiss on an abstract background of pale yellow and orange.
PROMISES – 16”h x 16”w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.
Promises
Why listen to words from a jolt of impossible colour that must surely be untrue? Because truth isn’t what you came for…. First in the “Lips” series.

16”h x 16”w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
Two ships in the distance on calm green water under pale golden sky with lilac purple and tangerine orange clouds.
GOLDEN HARBOUR – 18″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.
Golden Harbour
Underpainting of azo gold is a brilliant stretch of sand coloured by the lazy warm light. Dazzling gemstone water grazes the shoreline and stretches off to a hazy horizon line. Impossibly burnished clouds frame the sky above whispers of boats.

18″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
A dark haired female figure seen from the back, wearing only a dark corset and stockings and standing with one hand on her hip, painted in navy and white.
UPSTANDING – 24″h x 18″w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.
Upstanding
Shadowed curves of skin, tender as a confession, are fortressed by the fierce slant of shoulders and cocked hip. A warning, an invitation, a dare.

24″h x 18″w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
A curvaceous dark haired nude woman painted in shades of blue and white, sitting with her arm crooked and gazing off in thought.
IMPRINT – 36″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas.
Imprint
One day, the beautiful and blasé female I’d painted suggested she was not so serene after all. And that perhaps instead of being rendered, being represented, being marked, she might like to render and represent and mark. And so this is what happened.

36″h x 36″w, acrylic on canvas
A blue and white fingerpainted female torso nude from breasts to top of thighs, where dark strokes mark the tops of her stockings.
FAULT LINES – 20″h x 16″w, acrylic on canvas. SOLD.
Fault Lines
The meeting of thighs, dark lace edges of hosiery. Lines are boundaries to be crossed, are cracks to open. What comes next, and where lies the fault…

20″h x 16″w, acrylic on canvas
SOLD
Impressionist scene of a harbour with silver clouds and water, golden sky, and dark silhouettes of sailboats.
LATER – 24”h x 36”w, acrylic on canvas, framed. SOLD.
Later
The sun sets, boats seem to come to rest. Almost-black paint renders charred edges, framing a moment of calm, an attempt to still. Yet long lineations suggest a haze, a shimmer, things not quite fixed.

24”h x 36”w, acrylic on canvas, framed
SOLD
Wavy finger strokes of marine blue and white shimmer over a sitting woman’s nude torso and legs.
