When I was in the Virgin Islands a few years ago I took a lot of

photographs. I am glad I did, for I never get tired of creating land-

scapes using them for inspiration. I never copy them - they are

just "memory-joggers".

I love the colors of the Caribbean, and the

way they change constantly when you are there.

The infinite number of blues never ceases to amaze and

inspire me, and they are so much
fun to play with when I am painting. I enjoy

the challenge of trying to suggest a grand space on a

small picture plane. But the process of painting is also a peasure,

because as I am creating, I am immersed in memories of the place,

and it is a very sensuous experience.
