"To be, is to create".Art, Embroidery I initially produced work in textiles but became compelled to paint benevolently, following a personal bereavement. My art concerns abstract expressionism principally through emotion and the physicality of painting, developed from images emerging during this process. I apply paint freely, exploring colour, line and texture. With emphasis on multiple layering of colour, correlating to history, which reveal the previous mediums below. This creates exciting textured surfaces which I can translate into fabric pieces by surface manipulation and cutwork. My art allows me to be at one with the world, finding beauty in everything, from simple everyday objects, to people and glorious, crisp landscapes. My work portrays true feelings in response to current life and past memories. I use my intuition to sense what is needed in an image. Enjoy. |
