Darkness and the Light | 2025

The following paintings delve into the emotional landscape of life's changing states, visualising the emotional spectrum with colours of light and dark. They aim to depict the diverse paths and associated feelings encountered along the way. 

Vibrant colours represent moments of illumination, clarity, joy and optimism, whilst the dark represents sadness, despair, distress and fear.

This collection can be seen as a reflection of resilience, transformation, and beauty, found in the journey of life. 

Luminous Eclipses

Morphing Rivers

Summer Melancholy

Sometimes it is dark, very dark.
Cutting into the light
Or seeping slowly.

Eventually the dark pathways narrow
Or the light casts itself into the dark.

Different shades of life
Of wholeness and joy
Depths and paths in the luminous bends
All going somewhere
Another point in life.

Forms of light
Cutting into the dark
Reaching out and merging
Living with both
Somewhere on the path.

We can't see one without the other,
A contrasting balance.

Light in the dark
Let your eyes flow
And see where you go.
