THE ART OF EXPRESSION
ABSTRACTS
My abstract work has taken years to develop (and I’m still exploring). Understanding how to work with colour and allowing yourself to be free is a struggle many artists have. I love the free flowing movement in my work. It has an energy that is not contrived, and the exploration of colour and technique is exhilarating. It is a therapeutic form of painting for me, allowing me the opportunity to let go and paint with more feeling and heart.
Creating with your intuition is a really liberating and exciting process. Releasing those creative impulses and seeing the image grow into an artwork is so rewarding.
I work in acrylic, using thick, bold brushstrokes, palette knives to create unplanned markings, or as a watered down medium, allowing free flow and the running of the paint. Colour combinations are endless, and these paintings make an awesome statement to enhance a room.
