In 2025, I began making painting studies in a new direction.

I’m interested in gradations of colour, both the subtle and contrasting tonal shifts of hue, geometry and undulating lines of shifting light in a landscape. These ideas come together in these new exploratory studies.

I’ve long been inspired by the colour and movement of the Byzantine mosaics in Ravenna, Italy; sculptural and geometric forms—reflections and materiality often found in contemporary architecture —and the ever-changing light of the natural environment. 

These studies are the new beginnings in Lightworks.
