This set of work has been developed over the past seven years and continues to develop. The tree is a symbolic representation of energy, life, movement, passion and the workings of the mysteries within the universe.
All of the paintings have a kinetic alive feeling to them, some made with large gestural strokes that remind us of the physicality of the world we live in and others with mark making that suggests natural movement within nature itself.
