Creating abstract art is my happy place. It means I don't have to put pressure on myself and I can let the paint media take on a persona of its own - which is often bold, bright, colourful and free. This particular canvas has been repurposed and provides history and texture and manages all the layers that I wish to apply. Working on a larger substrate provides challenges, but also possibilities that are not so easy to achieve on a smaller scale.
It took time for me to call myself an artist - art as a school subject many years ago didn't quite cut it and it took years of self study and perseverance to enter the world of juried art exhibitions. Yet the thrill of seeing your work hanging on gallery walls for other art lovers to view, is quite intoxicating and keeps me creating.
