"I spend a lot of time in the studio. If I'm not working on a commission and have no model booked these paintings give a structure to my day. Despite remaining essentially the same, the studio changes with the light, and with how I am using it at the time."

So I know exactly what I am going to paint; the only question is how I am going to paint it. The result is a visual diary of someone at work in a place where imagination has free reign and all things seem possible."
