relax into the art of not knowing ... revel in the joy of wondering mind

making on the move
a nomad's gallery

 


An innate curiosity has meant that travel has played a big part in my life.
I'm one of those people who are more at-ease on the road than safely at home.
But I don't travel to paint; it's rare that works are completed within the context that inspires them.
I travel to absorb, to immerse myself in other languages, beliefs, realities.
I spend time in places rather than passing through. This immersion yields surprising impressions – often years later, when I reflect on my visual and written records and find myself urged to express some form of synthesis.
For me, the essential impressions seem to need the geographic gap and gestation time in order to surface, and when they do, they often arrive fully formed.
I simply assemble them.

 

As works are photographed they will be added to the gallery pages.
