These paintings present a concrete, pictorial equivalent of walking in the landscape. In stretched panoramas and series they reconstitute that episodic version of the horizon caught in a sequence of glances.
Oil paint offers a rich variety of tactile and chromatic effects, echoing the subtlety and complexity of changing light, weather and season. Images emerge from materials identified and contrasted with the processes of the natural/cultivated environment, especially timber and trunk.
Wall-hugging, projected or suspended, these pictures - studio inventions - offer the imagination vistas drawn from our reservoir of visual experience by redrawing the horizon in a viewing space.
