Not been here for a while now, it is just my secret place for words but recently my paintings are letting go of people they are becoming more abstract and I am rather pleased about this as I am going through a process of letting go.(Time of life? Maybe!) A relief really, some of the works are more appealing to me than others, some are peaceful and some are loud and over the top. There are so many opinions about Art and what it should and should not be, all about form and balance and colour, but when it comes to the making--- the exciting thing is anything can happen and sometimes it's like jumping off a cliff. You just don't know what it will look like when one layer goes on top of another, until you absolutely saturate your surface. Maybe it will be magnificent or just maybe the whole bloody thing will be a complete mess. These two images go from the sublime to the rediculous but I have to confess to be the maker and accept ownership of both of these pieces my work.
