| "My works are predominantly
abstract and inspired by the contours and shapes of the
disappearing industrial landscape of the Midlands. Paintings
are made from many situations and their sources are many
layered and distant in time. Although photographs and
sketches may be used in the initial stages of a work these
are really only used as aids to memory.' |
