Picasso said, the aesthetic pleasure of colour is the central device in making the sensual Eden that my work evokes.
An anatomical abstract pose, contemporary painting. The pose is halftone and is the most simplified to its basic forms and shapes, disguising the figure from dark to light.
A very intriguing and decorative painting which was inspired by old black and white photos.
The figured is painted in large single bold strokes with muted colours emphasized painterly qualities and strong shapes over the representational or realistic values retained by observation.
Textured and dramatic play of form, shades, light interact and play to add life and movement, complementing the juxtapositions of shape and form.
Thick and lush paint has a unique dimensional abstract quality. It is surprising how little information is needed for the eye and mind to make up the full picture.
The sensuous is the very element of art. It is a stimulant to life. The sides are painted to complete the view.
