ABOUT THE ARTWORK
TV has featured large in my life. The child of a TV engineer who built a regional TV station in the 60s and transmitted the first colour TV in Australia in the 70s, our TV was always on and I spent many hours a week sharing the living room with the test pattern and its cheesy music. Today my studio is in what was my Dad’s retirement electronics studio and his life’s work is influencing mine. My test pattern paintings include collage elements from his notebooks and technical books. My interest is in abstracting the iconic image of the test pattern, so it is still recognisable but also addresses my fascination with colour and texture. The colour relationships of the original test pattern are manipulated to investigate other colour theories and memories of life during the golden years of television. B & W Colour Test Pattern is bold and retro.

As an artist I explore how shape and colour can evoke memory of place and time. I live in what was my families beach weekender and childhood memories surround me and influence my work. When I begin a painting I start with no preconceived ideas but instead play in paint with the happy emotions I remember. As the work develops I choose a shape or shapes to emphasise and pare down the colours. It is at this point I choose which of my themes the work will fit into. I use these constraints to guide the finished work. My abstract paintings are done in acrylic, drawing media and collage on wood panels. My 3D abstracts are constructed of painted wood and found objects.
