'In the realisation of a finished work I aim to recover mystery and in this world of the known, I work standing before the unknown.

In my practice I work with print-making tools, silicone tools, brushes and bespoke squeegees. I love with a passion the ethereal nature of colour and the physical qualities of paint. I work to remould inner spaces, to invite attention to and engagement with surface and depth, outer picture and inner soul-space. I aim to create, to borrow a phrase, “the painting as a doorway”.' Richard Heys
