ABOUT THE ARTWORK

For me, a key part of being an abstract artist is to know how much to leave out. The spaces that are left untouched play a vital role in the performance of the painting because they serve as a holding place for the viewer’s imagination. Paintings that tell a complete and fully-formed story can leave us feeling unmoved. Part of the experience of looking at art, is the ambiguous space that is left open to interpretation where the viewer can inhabit the painting, and in that moment, be an active player in bringing it to life. In ‘Great White’, I have created distinct bodies of paint, each with very different energies, but how they interact with each other has largely been left open. That they have any connection at all is merely suggested, and as such, the composition behaves as a gentle invitation for the viewer to bring their presence into the painting.

I am a process-driven painter, meaning that the creation of the artwork is entirely dependent on the moment that I share with the paints. I engage with the materials and the surface as if they are alive and we co-create the painting based on this real-time relationship. There is an element of laying down my ambition for the final image and instead entering a collaborative state where I can discern the direction of the composition and be led to create a painting that accurately embodies the time it was painted in. I work in oils, unusually on oil paper and all of my work is abstract. I work full time from my studio in Hove, UK and exhibit a few times a year in both solo and group exhibitions. You can read more about my artistic process on my blog.
