From Poseidon to Land Painting

This painting was created over 6 weeks. There was a construction and deconstruction process to it. Using thinned oils I slowly built up translucent layers to create depth and a feeling that evoked the underlying narrative of human experience. The narrative behind this painting is about the an overwhelming sense of isloation and space that we can feel in remote parts of the world. In this abstract painting I wanted to describe through colour, mark making and composition, a sense emotive human response without using descript, literal references and keeping it purely abstract.
