In 2009 I left academe and began painting full time. The earliest paintings during this period are characterised by strong colour and a certain hard-edge clarity, sometimes they are constructed from several component parts. Around this time I also began to re-use fragments of paint that had been removed from earlier work during alterations and adjustments. These cut-out/scraped off fragments were often visually interesting in themselves and I began to re-embed them in subsequent work in a kind of painterly collage. This process of excavating, assembling, embedding, overpainting and revealing still provides an interesting methodological foil to my more formally structured work.
