I adore this artists abstracts. The colour lines are perfect and visually they are dynamically exciting.

Abstract is not easy to get to look this good. And the artist, in my opinion, has achieved work of an
exceptional quality. The flow of the brush strokes is almost palpable and if you look closely you will see that
the background is made up of short sharp monotone marks.

It is this detail that makes the works active in the eye. The second piece is as vibrant, but has a structure that
will give the viewer something to hang their hat on, metaphorically speaking.
And once again the actual stokes are the key to the action and the visual excitement of the work.

This artist has much to offer and I shall be keeping a close watch for more of his new paintings as they
emerge from his studios.
