Artist statement:
Still Life means a silent or quiet life. It is an exercise in patience and concentration of everyday objects. It is observing and abstracting forms in such a way that the create an overall harmony. According to the ancient Greek poet Simonides of Chios, painting is "silent poetry".
I endeavour to evoke a feeling of harmony, purity and beauty in my paintings.
