Artwork Description

Enigma is painted with acrylic paint, with gold and metallic red foil detail, on stretched canvas. The sides of this work have been painted, and completed with a layer of matt acrylic varnish, making it ready to hang as soon as you get it to your home.

One of my smaller works, Enigma really packs a punch with its colour palette, and would look stunning in an entrance way or study, or could look great in conjunction with other pieces in your collection.

Enigma is so called because, I have heard many suggestions as to the subject matter of this piece. I will not go into detail of what my vision for this was, but I would much prefer to hear your thoughts?
I have been told the obvious comparisons to fire, but also sound and a heart beat has been mentioned.
I love hearing what viewers see in their own minds eye, and to me, this is what abstract art is all about.

Some of the above images show Enigma in a frame, this is a suggestion only, and the painting comes unframed. Should you be interested in framing, please see Bluethumbs range of quality framing options, all carried out by local framers.

Artist Bio

I am an artist who works, mostly in abstract art, with a touch of surrealism and a little of the impressionist, and who loves to experiment with media- mostly acrylics at the moment.
I currently reside in Sydney’s Inner West, and love soaking up the culture and expressions of this artistic mecca.

I have been making art, and creative projects from a young age, with some of my very early works (while studying), becoming quite political in either their origins or their outcomes. Growing up in Northern Ireland (UK), provided a lot of inspiration, and opportunity, for political statements, and I can recall my tutors often asking me to hold back a bit, and when I explained my process, was told to really go for it. Sometimes though, I did have to be sensitive to the political situation.

I made the move to Australia a few years ago, and it inspires me every day to be creative. I try to include this, along with my world travels, and experiences from my home, into my abstract work. This could be a colour palette, a sound, a smell, a memory, even a dream, and I try to incorporate this into the creative process. This process can often take me on a journey, of which, I do not always know where it will end! This can be frustrating at times, but mostly, I love the outcome, and this is a huge part of abstract art, (for me anyway).
I hope you enjoy what I create.

Although each of my pieces is completely original and not easy to replicate, I am more than happy to find out your needs, and come up with something in a similar style, that is unique and individual to you. All you have to do is hit the commissions button, or feel free to drop me an email. I always love hearing from collectors, so please don’t hesitate to drop me a line and say hi.
