The practice operates within the field of abstract painting using bold colour.  Texture and mark marking are important to the practice but a love of colour, unites it.

Pieces often include clues to the themes undertaken and items incorporated have included fabric, paper, ribbons, string, shoelaces, dust etc, depending on the focus of the piece. The base materials used in the work can vary from acrylic paint and inks to graphite and watercolour pencils or water-based crayon.

More generally there is a consistent drive to seek contrast.  Much of the work embraces aspects of chance/chaos and control, tests ideas around colour theory, plays with contemporary curation and more generally attempts to gently push boundaries. 

Although there is an innate drive to make work of size, at times the work oscillates between large and small scale. Moving between small postcard size pieces to larger projects which, at times, have included 200cm long plastic tubes and painted lengths of silk many metres long, whilst other pieces have employed loose sheets of canvas and wood, or rolls of paper, as well as the more traditional box canvas.
