ACID BUNNY Painting

The themes of my work varied, my paintings are always triggered by someone I encounter on a journey of my life, also some of my artwork resonates with the feminist belief of the political as well as personal in ‘Free the Nipple’ equality campaign, supporting feminine body equality and empowerment through art to defeat female body oppression and archaic censorship laws. I'm portraying that in ‘MA PHILOSOPHIE’ 2013-2014 canvases as well as in ‘TURNING INTO YOU’ sketches & drawings seen on my webpage: - Like Tracy Emin, I express different aspects of both the feminine psyche and life itself in unpredictable ways. - ‘THE BEST OF HER’ 2015 triptych collages are about the rite of passage that addresses complexities of being a woman, with the light dash of mischief between the lines. The same year I also turned my attention to representational painting in ‘ONLY WE KNOW’ triptych. I was inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe and like her I love bright, bold and intense greens, reds, purples, yellows, blues and black to paint. I often use flat colour, emphasizing the shape of subject rather than three-dimensional form. I painted flowers much larger than life so that people would take notice and experience them the same way I did, making them appear monumental. - I used flowers as subject matter and painted as if looking at them through a magnifying glass, also expressing hidden ways of portraying personality’s of the leading man in my life at the time. I enjoy the lack of any rules in my art and paintings which makes it a free flowing, uninhibited, bold and colorful. I love the freedom of big, bold, tactile finger-strokes and multilayering that acrylic allows therefore acrylic is my main medium.
