Justine Fernie

I seek to emote using wild, revelatory colour. I work from photographs on figurative and architectural commissions, creating non-traditional portraits which are unique to my own personal vision. I use colour to show emotion, character, depth, ebb and flow, happiness, sadness and general expressivity of my subject matter.

I have taken this philosophy and reduced subject matter down to my own sort of pure abstraction, hence a "new" direction in my abstract pieces.
