Always Be Grateful Painting

Alice Boyle has chosen to concentrate on her artistic practice having co-directed, The Graffiti Project, on Kelburn Castle, studied Interior Architecture and worked in various art and design environments. Alice's, inspiration comes from her fascination with myths and fairy tales, the age-old stories of the wisdom of life that reflect on profound human problems that can lead us to our deepest spiritual potential. Her paintings aim to stimulate the viewer's own imagination; they contain specific symbols and colors to encourage each observer to create a personal untold story and meaning for each piece. The images are vignettes of a stylized distortion of nature with a surreal sensibility that gives the essence of a poem or song. Above all, Alice wants to stir up the childlike creativity and curiosity in us and remind people of the value and fun of fantasy and of making things up. Combining ideas of her memories, dreams and experiences, Alice creates vibrant dreamlike worlds.
