In the words of the
artist....
" I experienced abstract art for the
first time while enrolled in the Fine Arts program
at NIC. I love to apply bold colours and heavy
texture in an abstract impressionist manner pushing
the limits of reality. I am forever exploring
new avenues of creativity by mixing media and
sculptured effects in diverse ways.
I start with an image and then allow
the process to be unleashed in a restless energy,
often creating as I go. What may begin as an
organic piece of driftwood morphs into images and
textures that beg for exploration.
I find the art making exciting as
well as a revelation. One of my favourite
quotes by artist Paul Klee talkes deeply about my
process: "Painting is not the replication of reality
but painting is the invention of reality."
