Philip says of his work

 

"My recent paintings bridge two elements, observed reality and gestural expression.   I'm still really excited by paint and its ability to both image and material and I hope my recent paintings convey some of that quality.

 

Increasingly I've realised that the very thing I'm aiming for is to create a perceptual place I can visit and a distillation of thought.

 

It was twenty years ago that I first came to Norfolk, I had just met my wife and we enjoyed our first summer together in Brancaster Staithe.  At that time I was making geometric abstractions, just starting to discover light and beginning to draw everyday on the train.

 

It somehow seems poignant that twenty years on and three children later, I am showing my work here again in Norfolk,  the geometry is creeping back in to my paintings, the light is most definitely there and over 100 sketchbooks filled, I’m still drawing on the train!”
