When the weather fails, then in the studio arranging the flowers and objects in my Still Life paintings with the tones and shadows controlled by careful lighting and watching the imagery slowly evolve to a flourish of the finished piece, is what inspires and drives me in this genre. These paintings, in a labour of love, take many hours to complete, in the 'Chiaroscuro' style classical manner of ancient times.
