About The Artwork

This original acrylic and watercolour ink painting on paper is an explosion of colour, that seems like the universe itself, birthing light and hues and pulsating in a hot palette. It measures 22 1/2" x 16" and was started without any preconceived idea of what it would or should be. Since this was done in mid-fall, it's no surprise that the colours are not just warm but hot and brilliant as I am influenced by the environment I find myself in. But there's more to it. When I finished the piece, it did strike me as a piece that expresses heat, change, agitation even. Things are speeding up, getting warmer, hotter, and forces won't be held back. It seems to mimic or make visual what many people are feeling about the world and the escalating climate threat. There's hope and a possible triumph, but will things go up in flames instead? We will see. Working from a colourist's perspective I continue to experiment with palettes to see how much more energy and aliveness I can bring to the work. I am also researching more ways to make my studio and the art that is produced in it more eco-friendly, focusing on harm reduction and elimination in my methods and materials. size: 22 1/2" (apprx 56 cms) x 16" (40.64 cms) medium: acrylic and watercolour inks paper: watercolour paper

Rather than empowering what kills our motivation and spirit in the world, I rebel against that by focusing on creating nature-inspired positive, uplifting and vibrant original fine art in accessible and affordable small to large formats, limiting and/or eliminating ecologically harmful materials and methods in the process. Having established a firm foundation in realism, I have grown into abstract expressionism to capture the evocation of what I see and feel when in nature. I find acrylics to be a great medium to convey the texture, energy, immediacy and spontaneity of the moods that are invoked by the natural world; be it a gloomy eve or a radiant summer day, quiet in the air or the rushing of waves. Oils also have their place in capturing evocative and luminescent scenes and subjects. Watercolours, coloured pencils, charcoal, oil pastel and so on, lend themselves to a specific moment or expression. These mediums help me to describe that moment that I am capturing or trying to express in a tangible, physical, emotional evocative form.
