Steve Mcginn

My approach to art is abstract and minimal focusing on the essence of an idea using the pure elements of fine art, colour and form. My materials are chosen because of the way they emulate the vibrancy to life. Any chance accidents are integral to the nature of my work, like science they celebrate uncertainty and see the potential within 'mistakes'. During the application of paints, inks, resin and other media the resulting interactions become complex and difficult to predict. Any resulting ambiguity invites the viewer to contribute their imagination completing the creative process without dictating it.
I am an artist in everything I do, it has greatly enriched my life fulfilling a compelling need to create - an addiction to the fleeting sense of discovery it brings. It is this ongoing process of discovery that I try to share.
