There would be no art without an interest in understanding ourselves. It is essential to understand ourselves in order to understand life because we are life. Life is a window of opportunity between birth and death and art an attempt to open that window. Nearly all my paintings are metaphors for self-exploration. The pure bright colours express hope and the subjects are symbols of the self. If I paint an interior it invariably has a window to the outer world and my landscapes have mysterious skylines that beckon us on. In this adventure the journey and destination are one.

Feictear domsa gurb í gníomhnaíocht na n-ealaíon iarracht ar dhoras na cruthaitheachta a oscailte. Ní bheadh ealaín ar bith ann mura mbeadh suim na féin-tuisceana againn. Tá sé riachtanach dúinn sinn féin a thuiscint ionnas go bhféadaimid an saol a thuiscint mar go bunúsach is sinne an saol. Is maith liom rudaí gnátha a dhéantar, tré gníomh na péintéarachta, neamhghnách agus suntasach.
