Mandalas which are sometimes defined as “vessels containing energy” might best describe my work. The meaning is by no means limited to art and we can extend it to ourselves. When you refine patterns of shape and movement in Tai Chi you are working with the mandala of yourself, both physical and emotional.
Wood is symbolic of change, growth and new beginnings and I like to think my works promote that in a positive way. Art can be very powerful as our ideas and intention are influenced by the energy of our surroundings.
Cornwall provides much of my inspiration along with my past travels.
