Block Paintings

Block paintings – What are they about?

My purpose for these paintings is to create an expression of the dynamism of the human spirit (represented by the circle) as it navigates a journey through the experience of life (represented by the blocks). The black line surrounding all objects signifies the great mystery that holds things together, and yet separate from each other, creating a perfectly imperfect motif of existence and what one makes of it.

After many years of studying and painting external landscapes it has been an adventure of a new kind to reflect on the curious nature of internal landscapes and what existential aspects of them might look like painted in simple form.
