To free the wrist and make a mark. To let the painting lead. Red the most evocative and symbolic of life affirming colours. Resting, bleeding and smashing its way in and around a moving blue and white sea. The work of Cy Twombly has long been an inspiration. That attempt to freeze an accidental gesture. To celebrate a scribble. To illicit a response. To almost dare the picture to rearrange itself - but no this is a moment and these are marks caught forever within the confines of a hand made picture.
