    During total isolation, in lockdown, I painted over a 164 artworks up to date. I also took up meditation which allowed my imagination to flow again. It was cathartic and eased the trauma from what was happening in the outside world. Life is returning back to what was before, but with a greater sense of appreciating family and friends, united.

    In 2024 I became aware of the huge potential of acrylics so have switched across from watercolours that I have done for 10 years or so.

I use the brand name 'Random Acrylics' because they will be exactly that as you will see what you want to see.
