About The Artwork
I am interested in explorations of representation in painting and am always inspired by great painters like Roger Hilton and Willem de Kooning. Translating the figure into shape, colour and movement to establish a presence in the work that is alive without resorting to the literal representation of the figure. The figure in this piece does not have a specific identity, though it is female and I hope the viewer will get a sense of a figure in action combined with imagination. Thin layers of oil paint have been applied in an expressive style with soft edges and cross hatching. The colours are greys to black and the body of the figure in a soft yellow. The painting is not framed and does not come with hanging hardware.

United Kingdom
The central aspect to my work is the human condition, specifically the female figure as a symbol for the passage of time, emotional depth and love, which for me resonates with everyday life as a wife and mother. I studied fine art at the University of Hertfordshire, achieving a BA Honours in 1997 and a Masters degree in 2006 and from my earliest paintings I had this interest in portraying the emotional side of life, it was always there. So, it is important for me to say something about that and I very much like the idea that I can say it in a painting, this is the driving force that makes me want to go into my studio and keep working. I am inspired by the human figure and endeavour to create a window on a moment in space and time, allowing the figure to become timeless and universal.
