The Courting Painting

I was born in Newcastle of Serbian/Italian descent but raised in Suffolk. I developed a fascination for colours and textures inspired by cosmology and microcosm, nature, cinematic special effects but mostly inspired by music and lyrics. I work on large canvasses, diptychs and triptychs using acrylic and oils with varnishes and resins to create glossy multi layered flowing images on a matt background. The final effect is a volcanic three dimensional blown glass feel in two dimensions. The intricate images formed can be interpreted in many personal and subjective ways. Whether vibrant or subtle I enjoy experimenting with colours and the way they combine to give the effect I am looking for.
