My paintings arise from a direct engagement with the landscape and arrive at something that is both non-representational yet simultaneously tied to a sense of place. “Traces” continues the dialogue with our continent, Australia and in particular the impact of our presence on the land. Notions of discovery, uncovering, erasing and re-finding creates a third kind of landscape in front of the viewer as they witness the history of the act of painting and see references to the hope of renewal of our landscape and the possibilities in painting.
