For many years I have been drawn to geometry, repetition and the overlaying of patterns, by which new patterns are created. Often my work has reflected my interest in architecture. The act of mark-making, including writing, and my relationship to the materials used, have also  been important concerns.

These new works explore the ways in which houses in which we have lived in our early lives influence our dreams, daydreams, creativity and art. These houses also represent an additional geometry imposed between the geometric structure of the underlying painting and the geometric patterning of concentric circles and radii.
