Colour and texture are my inspiration and when I am drawn to a certain colour or rich texture or the fall of light on a building I want to capture that sensation in paint and fix it onto paper.

Often I am not sure how to proceed but working it out is the exciting part of the process of painting. I agree with Lucien Freud, who said "Half the point of painting is that you don't know what is going to happen - if you did, you wouldn't bother to do it."
