Kristin Come To China. A Portrait Of A Woman Not Going To Japan Painting

Everything that can be seen can be broken down into shapes and colours. My paintings and drawings break down the visual and simplify it into shapes then fragmenting and merging them to produce an abstract image. Everything used can be broken down to the materials used to make it. I have collected discarded items found on the side of the road and used them as a painting surface bringing attention the part each item may have played in its role during its life. This is painted on a cupboard door I found on the side of the road which gives my work a unique and unpredictable element to it. The painting I produce relies on the surface I have so I react to each object I find differently. My titles are from how I'm feeling at the time rather than the actual painting. I had decided to call this painting, 'A Portrait Of A Woman Not Going To Japan', when I first started painting it as all of my children had gone to Japan for a holiday while I stayed in Melbourne. While painting it the title reminded me of a phrase 'Kristin Come To China' which is a running joke in my family concerning my sister Kristin and a Christmas wish jar tradition we have so I decided to add it at the start.
