architecture
My inspiration comes from my journeys through the city. It is the architecture, humble or grand, and its obvious connection to the past, which ignites my curiosity. Our personal histories are anchored in our geography and a snapshot of a particular place can spark strong memories and emotions. I am always amazed at how Art can arouse such responses and I love being part of the process.
A painting starts as a line drawing. This is then transferred onto tissue paper, which is bleached and left to dry. Once dry, colours and texture are added by collaging behind the image. The final touches are added using water colour, oil pastel, chalk pastel and ink pen
