About The Artwork

This bright, colourful, bold, gestural, happy painting was inspired by a wonderful holiday I had in Rhodes, Greece. It is a pure celebration of travelling abroad, to the Mediterranean. Based around the light and heat, I want the viewer to taste and smell the sea and feel the hot sunshine when they view the piece. I deliberately took a long time in it's conception, starting with the initial ideas in 2016 and then completed the painting in 2019. I tapped into my memory and kept re-working the piece until the feelings, memories and composition of the piece felt just 'right'. The painting encapsulates the wonderful colours, scenery, smells and cultural diversity of this Mediterranean island. Signed on the front. No need to frame. It would suit a variety of rooms and interiors. Using high quality oil paint, sustainable wooden canvas stretcher and sustainable 10oz cotton. I use an ECO Green alternative to traditional turpentine.

I draw my inspiration from the constant possibilities of painting and the challenge of its unpredictable nature in conveying a subject. I am most interested in the process of painting and the expression it provides, translating a depth of feeling that is both personal but also shared with the viewer. Psychotherapy has directly influenced recent work and renewed my interest in abstract expressionism with the freedom of colour, line and allowing the subconscious and memory to guide my work. My current work explores the raw emotions I have experienced through personal challenges including the corrosive effects of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), infertility and a recent incurable auto-immune disease diagnosis. Whilst these experiences are highly personal, I believe that by exploring those emotions in my work I am creating a voice where one might normally be at risk of being suppressed and hidden.
