My practice explores fluid abstraction through the intuitive and meditative process of working with oil paint. I approach each painting as a dialogue between myself and the material almost as though I am painting with another entity. Rather than imposing a fixed outcome, I allow the paint to move, merge and respond, observing as colours intertwine and unexpected forms emerge.

The process is slow and contemplative. I am drawn to the moments where control gives way to intuition, and where one colour begins to influence another. Watching these interactions unfold becomes a form of meditation, a way of being present with the painting as it develops its own rhythm, movement and language.

More recently, I have begun painting on natural birch wood, embracing the warmth, texture and organic qualities. The contrast between the raw surface and the flowing layers of colour creates a meeting point between the natural and the imagined.

Through this process, I seek to create works that feel alive and open-ended. Paintings that invite the viewer to pause, look closely and become absorbed in the movement of colour.
