LASTEST WORK - Moate Theatre Exhibition (Kildare Artist Association)

"My art work explores the gestural marks and energy in our environment with hints of both figurative and landscape subject matter. Many of the works present a dynamic centre of movement within the stable confines of a square shaped canvas. This creates a sense of tension and excitement. The shapes within the work tantalize, they are open to interpretation. An adventurous exploration of materials such as oil, varnish, pigment powder, bitumen and fabric are used. There is a strong emphasis on the contrasts of texture, flat areas in vibrant washes of oil paint such as purples, ochres, crimson, prussian blue and greens are seen against areas of powder that are caught up in the varnish. The gestural sweeping marks with viscosity and seeping properties are explored of the paint"..
