Usually a biography about an artist lists the myriads of exhibitions and awards accumulated over the years. That’s not my story though. Early on I decided to focus my life work on living and building Christian community. My artistic vision has been largely expressed through the creative process of developing people and organisations. My painting and drawing have been like a creative stream that has run alongside this other work. This stream has been swelling recently as with the spring rains, and I’m looking to put more time and attention to moving in it over the coming years, both in developing my own work as well as working with other artists who share a vision for the role of art in our contemporary society.
