My recent series of paintings are instigated by my sailing interest. Deploying relevant sections of admiralty charts as a background, I have introduced images relating to sea conditions, weather, navigational marks, buoys and actual events to convey a sense of first hand experience. Using kevlar sail material as my canvas, I apply acrylic paint with a mixture of freedom and precision that reflects the nature of sailing.
