I conceive my paintings as translations of an experience, a memory, an intuition, an emotion.

They are lyrical abstractions, opening up, uncovering, laying bare the vulnerability of the exposed inner worlds, inhabited by feelings like anxiety, threat, isolation, a caress, serenity or calm.

I intend to show another reality and give the unseen, the unsaid, the unexpected, the unsuspected a visual voice.

Colours and shapes often take on their own dynamics, the process guiding the resultant image.

The paintings aim to take the viewers on a journey and entice them to see or feel a resonance of their own.



“You use a mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.”
George Bernard Shaw

“On ne voit bien qu’avec le coeur, l’essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.“
Antoine de Saint Exupéry

"La couleur me sauve.....
la mine du crayon, l'encre dans ma plume
me noient d'une peur où la joie éclate
du bord au centre de la cible
vers laquelle je me dirige aveuglément...."
Fred Deux
