ICELAND PART 1.
This is my world; it is a world of colour, etching and countless layers of paint.
This is Iceland; a place I would visit again in a heartbeat.
As you look into my work, visions will meet you. You will be looking through many windows to see sunsets, landscapes, feelings, meetings, pauses and adventures.
My wish is to gift you moments of pause as you take your own interpretive journey, deep breaths where you almost lose yourself in the ice nostalgia I’ve created.

Laying dormant and making plans, a volcanic structure explored and experienced (pre-eruption).
This piece is the largest in the ICELANDIC Collection and my first work in the series on primed linen canvas. This work expresses my experience exploring the volcanic icy peaks of Fagradalsfjall and it’s arctic barren surrounds. I was lucky enough to explore this magnificent wonder before its eruption. This work is a true expression of the environment I trekked, the blizzard I got caught in for hours in complete darkness, a reenactment of the limited light as it danced off the glacial ice and my capture of my thoughts, feelings and emotions throughout the adventure itself. A true window into a frozen kaleidoscope in time.

Reminiscent of the passing landscape… my eye shutters polaroid view of the fleeting side frame window of the barren Icy Tundra of Iceland.
Travelling through this albeit icy wonderland it was also surprisingly green, golden and barren. Otherworldly is really the way I’ve continued to describe it when asked about my travels. This work continued to come to me in my dreams when I would drift off the sleep and transport myself back to looking out the truck window as caught the last of the daylight on our way the next adventure. Reminiscent of the passing landscape, this is my eye shutters polaroid view of the side frame window of the Icy Tundra landscape.
