ARTISTS STATEMENT
|
I generally
believe that visual art - at least my work - should speak for itself.
For me, a painting or drawing transmits energy.
An energy capable of shifting our emotional and intellectual perceptions
while nourishing our material visual sensibilities through a carefully
chosen surface and medium. Thinly brushed oil paint or rapid movements
of pencil or charcoal allow me to trace and deposit this "energy"
direct from life.
This makes the "act of looking" a mysterious experience and therein
lies the deep attraction.
Often an image arrives as a "call" from my immediate surroundings;
it could be anything from a building, an abandoned child's toy or
someone asleep; I am moved to respond.
An inarticulate conversation begins; an intimacy, a union, follow.
Why this image? The answer is I don't all together know. It's very
enigmatic.
The result is something like alchemy, rather like oil resting on
water: if we look close we can see the colours of the rainbow.
