Artist Statement
My work could easily be refered to as going back to basic. I explore colors, texture, shapes and paint to their fullest.
The colour I choose for Autumn remind me of the season, as it was at that time of the year, London become very dark early, but with the city light, the sky gets that purplish colour. I never knew how the colour will interact on the canvas, as most of my paintings are done in only 1 stroke. However, for this one is was a bit different, as I got back to the painting and removed some of the paint. If my work requires more than one movement or stroke, I never add paint, I only remove some. I use acrylic and resin which produces even more contrast, in term of texture and finish. I usually apply the resin only on the shape I try to create so there is always that rude canvas texture left. That shiny, glossy finish makes the paint deep and becomes very hard to realize it-s actually acrylic underneath.
