About The Artwork

Garden Lights - 33cm x 33cm x 5cm (Framed in Dark Walnut) My current work includes night landscapes. These works extend my fascination with colour and composition. The repeated motif of the night sky facilitates my exploration of colour value. This scene is from my studio window. Neighbours lights at night, in sheds, gardens and indoors add high notes to an otherwise dark, shadow filled scene. Painted from a minimal palette, large shapes of low key colour merge together and details are lost. Painted from observation, in darkness with a small headlamp, placing me in an uncomfortable mindset, pushed to use short term memory and to utilise intuition. The resulting paintings can be naive and only vaguely recognisable, hopefully depicting a nostalgic and atmospheric scene that allows for viewer participation.

My current work includes night landscapes. These works extend my fascination with colour and composition. The repeated motif of the night sky facilitates my exploration of colour value. Mixing colour with a minimal palette I paint from observation, in darkness with a small headlamp, placing myself in an uncomfortable viewing position. I impose limitations like these in order to generate creative problem solving utilising memory, recall and intuition. There can be a sense of urgency in painting this way, an attempt to capture in paint momentary glimpses of shapes like distant light in a neighbours window, dark shadows forming unusual shapes. The resulting paintings can be naive and only vaguely recognisable, ideally though the paintings are a nostalgic and atmospheric scene that invites the viewer to recall familiar night landscapes from their own experiences.
