1asked by william secombe

Who are you most inspired by?

I know it sounds corny, but I am inspired by everything around me. My subject matter is light and the play of light on objects. As a result, anything lit by any kind of light can inspire me.

2

What do you want to most convey in your work?

I want to convey the sculptural quality of objects as revealed by the highlights and shadows created by light falling on them. By depicting this quality, I hope the viewer sees a nuance that they may not have noticed previously when looking at a similar object because people move so fast today that they don’t stop and take time to appreciate the immense beauty in the world.
