Kiss The Sky

Mixed Media on Panel 30 x 72 (3 panels) SOLD

In these pieces, one might sense a hidden divine presence within the work. Felt but not necessarily seen. A painting may begin with a thought, emotion or feeling and the first layers are a beginning point for the process of painting. As it progresses, new relationships between colour, shape, line, texture and space are revealed and concealed in new forms. It is a series of decisions, a dance, and a conversation that continues until the painting takes on a wholeness of existence.

These works are inspired by the relationship between industry and nature, and the juxtaposition between nature and the built environment. My works have a focus on impermanence, memory, life cycles and the passage of time, with the use of natural and architectural forms, layered and abstracted, to interpret those concepts - covering, uncovering, containing, fracturing, reconstructing, sometimes obliterating. A palimpsest is created where traces of what is under the surface remain visible. What is concealed feels sacred.
