Over millions of years, the Orange River took with it vast deposits of gold and rough diamonds in its waters as it passed over the kimberlite rich diamond bearing rocks in the interior.  A thousand mile journey ends on the Atlantic Coast

From 40,000 feet up on the edge of Space we look down on a vanishing world of icy beauty .  Teeming with unique wildlife and rocks so old they show evidence that this bleak place was once a tropical forest eons ago. This is Antartica

Light years away are worlds that are being created and destroyed as each of our human days pass. Vast mountain ranges and rivers of ices, seas of fantastic colours and planets made of minerals we may not know of. The Peaks of Andromeda is my imaginary world of mountain range miles high above the planet surface and mineral lakes miles deep

A tropical forest, branches high up in the canopy, a rainstorm finishes and the sunlight breaks through to reveal a world of multicolour feathers in the sun, glistening with their two tone effects as they feed on the nectar of the plants.

The rough texture of the rocks with the veins of gold heating to form a liquid gold, pouring into a beautiful rough gold bar. Collecting, cooling and shining with layers of rare metallic beauty. Rare 100 year old Russian gold leaf, foils and diamond dust built up in layers of resin over handmade inks, mineral pigments…

Silver, gold and marble has been a backbone of early civilisations to create fortunes, great buildings and power world domination of Empires. I combine architectural details with pure silver leaf, minerals,old prints and inks in resin layer after layer – hidden drawings under the marbling effects…

Imagine an undisturbed forest, rare colourful birds and animals undisturbed in their own heaven. Running water shaping river beds and pools to swim and dive into searching for food for their young. Feathers of dazzling colour combinations just are gone within seconds hitting the water with such accuracy…

The power of the planets and their upper atmosphere storms thousands of miles high can only be imagined. Beautiful colour combinations as seen from space hide the huge forces moving across the planet mixing toxic elements like sulphur, water, phosphorous, mercury in a stormy vortex. Using the very minerals that make up our…

In relative time the incredible beauty of Iceland’s waterfalls, misty peaks and black volcanic sand are new in the Earths history. It is like we imagine early time -free of humans, Nature able to develop as its own pace. A harmony of balance. Using the backdrop of waves and minerals crashing on volcanic basalt

The Artic is a magical world of transformation from above as the onset of Spring transforms the vast frozen rivers into moving blocks of ice weaving wonderful patterns cross the landscape. Alaska and the vast Rocky Mountain chain is a magical world of transformation from above as the onset of Spring transforms…

The surfaces of other amazing planets reveal storms so severe and ice worlds from space they almost appear like an artwork. I try to create this formation out of my mind and not from any reference…it just flows as I do the work….it is my imagination of how that distant worlds maybe…

Gold was created at the beginning of the Universe and the particles hurtled through deep space for millions of years on comets and cosmic dust storms till the planets started to form. On our earth in the heat of our Creation collected in narrow veins in concentrated areas of heat and cooling and is where we find it today by deep mining…

Silver has kept civilisations for millennia fascinated since it was found in the earth and used as coins and making fascinating objects. Using silver leaf and mineral pigments, inks, pens and 5 resin layers on top of rare drawings mixes human genius and the earth’ s very own wonder…

My fascination with aerial views and trying to create the surfaces and views from above in my imagination is the fuel that keeps me going. If it is a storm in its infancy or a huge range of mountains covered in mist , or an interstellar view of a distance world , this is a fascination. Standing back from the work it almost looks 3 dimensional

The rough texture of the rocks with the veins of gold heating to form a liquid gold, pouring into a beautiful rough gold bar. Collecting, cooling and shining with layers of rare metallic beauty. Rare 100 year old Russian gold leaf, foils and diamond dust built up in layers of resin over handmade inks, mineral pigments…

Birds of paradise hidden amongst the polished stone pools, so silent as they dive into the depths to feed their young

A mix of two worlds came to mind in this inspiration from the tropical forests and all the wildlife in the trees like delicate humming birds and their fine details of their wings.

The Artic is a magical world of transformation from above as the onset of Spring transforms the vast frozen rivers into moving blocks of ice weaving wonderful patterns cross the landscape.

The surfaces of other amazing planets reveal storms so severe and ice worlds from space they almost appear like an artwork.

Gold was created at the beginning of the Universe and the particles hurtled through deep space for millions of years on comets and cosmic dust storms till the planets started to form.

Gold has kept civilisations for millennia fascinated since it was found in the earth and used as coins and crowns thousands of years ago.

The movement of the weather patterns across the world create such visual beauty from Space.
