A man and a child sitting on the shore with their backs to us. In front of them sky and sea run into one endless horizon.

“A Gate into a New Life”. Mixed technique with gloss, 120 × 100 cm.

Along the line where water meets light there is a gold band. That is the gate: narrow, horizontal, the full width of the canvas.

The two are archetypes. The adult is the past and maturity, the child is the future and clarity. They sit together and look one way.

The waves part in front of them like time.

Gold is the energy of spirit for me, water is emotion, sky is consciousness. A simple layout, and I left it simple.

The moment has a name: initiation. The old has been said goodbye to, the new has not been entered.

The landscape is symbolic. There is no particular place, and looking for one is pointless.

It works as a key. Everyone remembers their own crossing point, and those differ.

Good above a sofa in a room where people talk.

Shall we talk about art?

Ask me about any part of what I do — what a work is made of, how it feels to the hand, how it will sit in your room. I am glad to film it for you in the studio. We can talk through size, framing and timing, or start a work that does not exist yet.
