The theme of Phantom Galleries 2011 is Freedom of Spirit in the Spirit of Freedom in conjunction with the celebration of 50 years of Amnesty International. My current and recent work falls into this theme in that I am exploring life through my own eyes and trying also to see life through the eyes of an innocent child. The display of a variety of my sketchbooks and a work-in-progress along with finished works, gives a glimpse into the development of my ideas and my artistic process.
