Gulls on Paper, Series I (ID - 34aC) Painting

Angela’s purpose for creating art is much more than simply filling gaps on walls with pretty pictures. It's complex. To begin to unravel it, we must look deeper into her process and how it began. She took art as a subject at school, but it wasn't the time spent learning to draw which created the artist. It was the secret moments where she felt she could be free to unleash her raw emotions through paint, which kept her coming back to create. She found that these moments silenced her mind, the brushstrokes reflected her emotions, the subjects her own experiences, memories and desires. And from this state a deeper connection to herself and her inner joy was created. It was fun and it empowered her. For you, the viewer, it is Angela's intention that her work does the same. She paints familiar subjects to quieten your thoughts, evoke your emotions which has the power to conjure up memories linked to your unique experiences or desires. Whichever the case this deep reflective quality leads you to a greater understanding of self. The things you like, love and potentially the things you need….or maybe simply just to spark your own sense of fun! Hence Angela’s purpose for creating art is much more than simply filling gaps on walls with pretty pictures.
