Biography 

NO COMPUTERS WERE USED IN THE CREATION OF THESE WORKS I was born in a small county town in the Mallee region of Victoria,in 1950.At an early age my interest the arts was shaped by my parents interest in the arts .My fathers had a great love of the French Impressionists and post impressionists.I was fascinated by there use of colour to create an illusion of shape and depth as in these artists[Van Gogh ,Monet ,Manet,etc, ]. later i was influenced by Piet Mondrian with his use of pure colour in a controlled and disciplined manner.i was impressed by his balance and harmony ,with his simple use of colour and basic shapes.I am now working as an ENVIRONMENTAL EXPRESSIONIST.these days i try work clean free of outside influences ,take my inspiiration from both nature and human nature.

An art movement founded in France in the last third of the 19th century. Impressionist artists sought to break up light into its component colors and render its ephemeral play on various objects. The artist's vision was intensely centered on light and the ways it transforms the visible world. This style of painting is characterized by short brush strokes of bright colors used to recreate visual impressions of the subject and to capture the light, climate and atmosphere of the subject at a specific moment in time. The chosen colors represent light which is broken down into its spectrum components and recombined by the eyes into another color when viewed at a distance (an optical mixture). The term was first used in 1874 by a journalist ridiculing a landscape by Monet called Impression - Sunrise.
