For some years I have been pre-occupied with the granite quarries of Bodmin Moor as a stimulus for my work, using them as a point of departure to investigate the hidden geological structure revealed by the excavation process. I do not intend they are viewed as landscape in the conventional sense, but seek to exploit qualities of texture and geometry as the building-blocks of the compositions.
More recently, this motif has been enriched by exploration of the volcanic Eifel region of Germany and it has been the trigger for a re-appraisal and development of the theme. Though highly saturated colour and the flat picture-plane is still a dominant characteristic, some softening of my pallet is a consequence of this amalgamation.
