ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Oil and cold wax medium on board. These abstract paintings are something of a departure for me. Throughout my career to date I have always described myself as a photographic artist, but for a long time now I have found myself being drawn more and more strongly towards abstraction. And then during lockdown this summer I spent some time renovating one of the rooms in our very old house. As we removed old kitchen cabinets from the walls I was able to see hundreds of years of paint and plaster. And the beauty of these layers of history was extraordinary. I photographed them and used the pictures as layers of texture in some of my photographic work, but I kept coming back to the feeling that these attractions deserved more than just playing supporting role in other imagery and should in fact themselves be playing the starring role. And so my experiments with oil and cold wax medium began.

My journey as an artist has taken a new turn, leading me from the realm of photography into the captivating world of abstract painting. While I have long identified as a photographic artist, my recent explorations into abstraction have ignited a passion within me that I cannot ignore.The catalyst for this shift came during a period of renovating a room in my ancient home. As layers of paint and plaster were peeled away, revealing centuries of history in intricate patterns and textures, I found myself captivated by the raw beauty of these remnants of time. While I initially incorporated photographs of these discoveries into my work as texture layers, I soon realized that these abstract compositions deserved to take center stage.Thus began my experimentation with oil and cold wax medium, a journey marked by discovery, intuition, and a deep connection to the creative process. Each painting is a dialogue between spontaneity and intention, as I explore the interplay of color, texture, and form to evoke emotions and spark contemplation.Through abstraction, I seek to capture the essence of the unseen, inviting viewers to embark on their own interpretive journey. My work is a celebration of the inherent beauty found in the layers of existence, a testament to the richness of history and the endless possibilities of the present moment.As I continue to delve deeper into the realm of abstract painting, I am driven by a sense of exploration and discovery, guided by the belief that art has the power to transcend boundaries and connect us to the universal language of emotion and experience.
