For me, an image or thought has to roll around in my head for some time, letting me imagine and work through the elements of the painting so when I pick up my brushes the pigments flow freely and loosely.
Watercolour particularly for me emboldens the joy and fun of watching the chemistry of the pigments and water as they mix on the paper - following the path of my brushes and imagination - so perhaps I am more of an allegorical painter - wanting to share an emotion or idea rather, necessarily a landscape - though as you will see from the Artwork below - my series 'Where Curlews Call' are landscapes inspired by our recent time in Cairns North Queensland.
My Work entered for this year - 2022 'A Mother's Love' is an allegorical piece as explained above - it has rattled around in my head - fully informed by all the turmoil and trauma so many people have experienced over this last 2 years. I've thought about the parents, and particularly the Mother's who have had to make survival decisions and the risks they have taken. I've thought about the parents who have watched sick members of their families and nursed them back to health or morned if things have not gone to plan.
'A Mother's Love' - thinking about the sadness, loss of safe places and trauma 2020/21, illness and loss of family this is my response for 2022 - We carry our loads differently .....
