''I call it the art of finger painting. Using oil bars directly onto canvas, I manipulate the paint with my fingers using no brushes. I take influence from many places including interior design, cubism, abstraction, the macabre surrealism of Bosch and many more great masters. I would like to think my work evokes emotion, from love to death and all that is in between. I would hope people who live with my paintings long enough will see what I feel and the emotions I felt when I painted them.''
