The Chinese philosopher Lau Tzu is reputed to have said that “a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” and with respect to my art journey, so it was for me.

Put off art in school by my lack of drawing skills and an art teacher with a traditional or narrow focus, I spent over 40 years thinking art was not for me.

It took an earthquake in my thinking to awaken my artist desires and sparks from a friend to light the fire that now burns under my creative cauldron…..

Abstract art is for me the ultimate creativity and I like to create just for the sake of being expressive and how it makes me feel.

Abstract art is an adventure to create. The unseen becomes the seen. What was not, becomes what is. I often do not have a clue where I am going to end up or sometimes how I am going to get there. It is the ultimate improvisation that I love.

The wonderful thing I find about abstract art is its interpretation is all down to the viewer, it means something different to everyone. This is true of all art I think, but even more so with abstract art because of its ambiguous nature.
