My Style & Influnces
Click above to view a series of original paintings evolved from the
idea that there is a certain transparency to viewed landscapes and the
mind will recreate hidden pieces of the visual image. Having always
being fascinated by the works of Pablo Picasso,Paul
Klee,Lionel Fenninger and many other Cubist artists I set out to create
a semi-abstract style where colour and form create an essence or
feeling of a place.
Often quite abstract and constructed my ideas are continually evolving on a journey to create a distinctive interpretation of the thoughts of the great masters.
Paul Klee said "Art is not the recreation of the visible , it is creating visible"
Foreground features will mask mid and distant features but we can re - form a complete image by “ looking through “ the foreground.
These are individual semi - abstract works which recreate my emotional response to the environment around Anglesey and other familiar areas of Wales.
Much of the work involves a relationship between the fragility and vulnerability of man made landscape features with the power and reassuring permanence of mountains, sea and sky.

Clicwch uchod i weld gyfres o beintiau gwreiddiol sydd wedi eu datblygu o’r syniad bod rhyw dryloywder i dirwedd a bydd y meddwl yn ail-greu darnau cuddiedig o’r ddelwedd weledol. Cefais fy rhyfeddu gan waith Pablo Picasso, Paul Klee, Lionel Fenninger a sawl arlunydd Ciwbaidd arall, a nawr rydw i’n cychwyn creu arddull rannol haniaethol ble mae lliw a ffurf yn creu hanfod neu deimlad o le.
Mae fy syniadau haniaethol a lluniedig yn datblygu’n barhaus i greu dehongliad nodedig o syniadau'r meistri mawr. Dywedodd Paul Klee "Nid ail-greu’r gweladwy yw celf, ond creu'r gweladwy.”
Yn aml, bydd nodweddion y blaendir yn cuddio nodweddion pell neu gyfagos ond mi fedrwn ail-ffurfio delwedd gyfan trwy ‘edrych drwy’ y blaendir.
Mae'r rhain yn weithiau rhannol-haniaethol sydd yn ail-greu ymateb emosiynol i amgylchedd Môn, ardaloedd cyfarwydd ac ardaloedd cyfarwydd eraill yng Nghymru.
Mae llawer o’r gwaith yn clymu perthynas rhwng breuder a gwendidau nodweddion tirwedd o waith llaw dyn, gyda phŵer a sefydlogrwydd cysurlon y mynyddoedd, y môr a’r awyr.
