A painting should 

Stand on its own

The viewers are

 Invited to 

Feel what they See

Find what is to 

Be Found

Given an opportunity to believe in what they feel, the viewers are called to create their own narrative. 

A strong emotional outpour results into a youthful display of critical thinking.

“I begin first by writing on the surface to construct the main theme and elements that will be living within the canvas. Then a process of “filling in the blanks” begins, bringing emotions thru colours and resolving the visual narrative.  Abstraction has the ability to be more challenging - easier to question. The use of recognisable letters and words are to guide the viewer in certain directions, towards specific subjects and critical ideas - they act as indexes.

The loss of control does not occur, yet spontaneity is omnipresent.  The artistic risk is what really fuels this collection.”
