BIRCH WHEEL Painting

I live and work in Cheshire. Art, music, the natural world and my Son are my passions. Nature inspires and calms me and I strive always for my life and art to be one. Dreamspace is a concept as much as an overall title for my body of work. I love the idea of there being a space that exists between waking and dreaming, a place where the subconcious and concious minds meet. A place of magic and potential, truth and awareness.I'm free spirited & passionate,and find art & music a sacred & vital expression. I am inspired by a desire to communicate through my paintings and use the female form to express feeling. I hope for a spark of knowing to pass between the viewer and the painting, creating an interactive exchange within and without.I use 3D & Trompe L'oil techniques where possible to challenge perceptions of reality. The Mandalas are doorways, portals to create a connection & interaction so people can access a different mental space and hopefully feel something new within themselves. I believe art should always create a response. I embrace the concept of Mother Earth as a life giving force, and the love this inspires in me has influenced all my work.Enjoy x
