The nude motif is one with which I have worked for many years. It is of course an ever present motif in the history of art. The nude continues to fascinate us, not without its fair share of controversy and debate.

Debate aside, the fascination of the nude motif for me is that of form, of colour and most essentially of substance, both physical and psychological. It is a celebration of existence, resilience and of the integrity of 'being'.

This series of nudes is a selection that spans the last 10 years, from pastel to paint, from design to life drawing.
