Space Series : 1969
            - 1970

            
These paintings developed
            from the convergence of a number of ideas; The Space Race,
            Moon Walking, Science Fiction, Anti-matter and Astro Physics
            with notions around Black Holes and 'alternative worlds'
            to our own. Many used a diamond shape format to float the images
            free from gravity.

            
'Designs with an
            appearance of being incised on the 'cut' surface, are symbolic
            and abstract but suggest inner mysteries. These gaseous orbs
            are delicate and poetic.'
