I am building a process to express my understanding of self and place. This also gives me a vehicle to explore why it is that certain places and certain works by artists have such an emotional and everlasting impact. Art Website: https://bernardqu27.myportfolio.com This means my work is essentially an autobiographical thread. My new work starts with a response to a location or a painting by another artist that I have come to know. As the work emerges my focus turns to my response and the process itself. The challenge is how to articulate these aspects in the work using three physical elements of colour, light and surface.
