These large-scale paintings mark a departure to a new freedom of expression, exploring the subtle and contrasting relationships between colours and the emotions they provoke.

​

They began as an experiment with the colours I named in my Colourful Language work and are now taking flight on their own adventure.

​

I describe them as painted by my soul as opposed to my head. Their initial colour palettes are chosen, and the structure and compositions are semi-controlled but the rest is led by the pigments and what they do when I soak, burnish and then wipe the paint from the canvas.  The result has a luminosity provided by the white of the canvas and the hum of the remaining pigments. 

​

I am happy to work to commission with these pieces. Do get in touch if you have a project.
