Writing helps me process information different to painting. It’s a bit more analytical and has it’s own structure. However writing is at the core of my creative process and goes hand in hand with my paintings. For example an interview I conducted 4 years ago may be at the basis of a whole new abstract series. I have grouped my writing under three topics. If you click on the orange “Seagrass” you will find interviews with marine ecologist, activist, environmental leaders and more. “Art” deals with a behind the scenes look at my painting process and “Out and About”- is just for fun!
